The school board in Shenandoah County in Virginia has voted to restore the names of Confederate generals to two schools. https://www.nvdaily.com/nvdaily/shenandoah-county-school-board-votes-to-restore-confederate-names-to-2-schools/article_ed83aa54-093b-50fa-ae8c-a56340e77f09.html

@w7voa The Shenandoah Valley had a sweep of ultra conservative school board elections this last cycle. Horrible actions are happening every day now. Teachers are afraid to speak up. Books are banned. Outside money funded the sweep. We need help

Once a teacher shoots a kid or the administration in Tennessee, they may or may not realize that arming teachers is a bad call.

@StillIRise1963 There will always be hot headed, overly confident, conservative teachers who embrace the notion that guns make schools safer. Not many, but always a few. If they bring guns to school, better, smarter teachers will leave in droves.

@StillIRise1963 Sadly, some of the best. Safety is a basic need. No amount of money will keep people where they don't feel safe and teachers don't make nearly enough
