After changing the name to Legacy in the midst of the George Floyd nonsense, the MISD school board has voted to change the name back to Lee. Let the games begin (again)

GOOD

I remember when they changed the name. There was a poll about it at the time down in Midland and the vote was 97% against the name change!

How long until this is a story on CNN and the liberals start freaking out?

i dont feel safe

Home school your kids.

Now Do Hays Highschool Hawks back to Hays Rebels. Went away the same time period.

So does this mean that Dixie will be played at the football games?

Good job by the citizens of Midland!

I don't think they'll go that far.

Love it!

That'll make my dad happy.

Tyler ISD needs to grow a pair and do the same thing.

Although I'm not the biggest fan of John Tyler himself...

good.

and for the record, GF was a violent criminal who died from a fentanyl overdose, not by force from Derek Chauvin (whom deserves a presidential pardon).

Back to liking participation trophies it seems.

Buddies back in WTX are laughing at Midland for even going through this exercise to change names of a high school multiple times.

I went to San Antonio [Robert E.] Lee. It would be nice if they changed it back, but it's not going to keep me up at night if they don't.

San Antonio isn't a very bright city

All liberals should.

This guy was shooting video and was attacked by the woke mob in attendance. Don't know how to embed Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/ninomerica?comment_id=Y29tbWVudDoxMzI1NzM4MjAyODk1NjU0Xzc0MzMxMjk5ODMyMDkwNQ%3D%3D

Wow so just like that they're going to end all of that progress they've made in solving racism? Horrible, horrible decision by those white supremicists.

There was such overwhelming forgiveness, friendly waves, hugs, smiles and goodwill spreading like wildfire too, with the name change. What are they thinking? Next thing you know those haters will put the statues back up.


(What a fantastic thing these folks taking back control of their communities!).

This was an emotional piece about the name change we did back in 2020. I am so glad woke is out and common sense is back! https://t.co/inZXjxZxmG

I approve of this! Now if only my high school in Houston would change their name back to Lee…

Wish I Was In Dixie

When I was a fish in 1969, there were Confederate flags waving at midnight yell practice, and the band played Dixie as well...

We're slowly returning to sanity. Of course we are so far from it that it's going to take a while. But things like this are good signs.

Let's Go Jack C. Hays Fighting Rebels!

Drop the Ravens and go back to your roots!

From a Midland High grad, I'm glad Lee got its balls back.

They were in this case, San Antonio Lee High School changed is name to LEE (so acronym with Education in it) pretty brave during those woke times frankly

A guy I went to high school with was the one that spearheaded the name change to Legacy. I watched him go form a larger than life fun guy, to a broken obsessed man after Trump and Floyd. I'll give him credit for following it through to the end but he lost so many friends during that time.

Legacy of Educational Excellence (LEE). It was as big of an FU to the woke mob as was possible at the time.

That's what happens with mental illness, and no attempt to repair. Doubling down on it repels people.
