They took our Charleston High. Changed it's name and tore down that historic piece of so many lives. Shame.. Let Stonewall stand. It's all some have to hold to... Their high school memories and the great building where those memories were made. So much of our history is being erased. We are proud West Virginians. Keep our pride alive.

Ken: It is not people of color who want this change. I fear it is the "political correctness" police. White though they be, they feel they are superior to all others in their intellect and presume, like the Islanders in Gulliver's Travels, to float above the towns and dictate even the weather. All students who attended the school feel a loyalty to its name. God Bless You and Yours.

I'm not near no ever attended the school but I fully support those that want the name to remain the same. I'm so sick of all these activists wanting everything their way, History should never be changed nor rewritten just because you don't like it. I've only lived here in WV for 21 years, I moved here to give my children (all grown now) a better life than they would have had in Maryland.

The name does not need to be changed.
