It was only a matter of time. The “Dallas Independent School District included schools named after three of America’s Founding Fathers on a list of schools that the district is exploring renaming,” Peter Hasson reported in The Daily Caller yesterday, on Constitution Day. “The DISD administration has already recommended renaming four schools named after Confederate generals, including Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson.”
“The district is conducting additional research on whether to rename at least 20 other schools named after historical figures. The list of schools, posted by DISD board member Dustin Marshall on Facebook Saturday night, includes schools named after Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.”
