This petition is signed by the Lee High School Community which includes alumni, community members and students who do not want the name of their school changed. Six decades of alumni ask that the Fairfax County School Board, please NOT rename Robert E. Lee Lee High School in Springfield, Virginia. We all consider Lee “home” and renaming our school would take a piece of our collective souls. The idea of changing the name did not come from within the Lee community, but by the personal feelings of the School Board which should not be the catalyst for change.
