When the school voted to change the recommended names, Jeremiah Jeffries, a teacher and leader of the renaming committee, was elated.
“We are unapologetically going after white supremacy, white supremacist symbols, and making these changes that people have been demanding for years,” Jeffries said at the meeting.
A torrent of criticism erupted nationwide.

Many within the school communities supported the panel’s efforts and celebrated the prospect of a host of new school names.
