The vote comes despite an October community survey that found 56% opposition to changing the school names. “After deep and careful consideration of everything I’ve heard and read, I conclude that renaming both schools is in the best interest of our students and a necessary part of our equity work,” Greg Anderson, chair of the Falls Church School Board, said Tuesday. The name change is a school board initiative that began in the summer at the height of social unrest and included a survey of the Falls Church community taken in October. The survey revealed that 56% of the community overall asked that the names stay on the schools, including 61% of the parents of Thomas Jefferson Elementary students and 57% of George Mason High parents.
