The Virginia NAACP sued Shenandoah County school board Tuesday over its reinstatement of Confederate military names to two schools, accusing it of embracing segregationist values and subjecting Black students to a racially discriminatory educational environment. The school board in Shenandoah County voted 5-1 last month to revert the name of Mountain View High School back to Stonewall Jackson High School, and that of Honey Run Elementary to Ashby Lee Elementary. The vote reversed a 2020 decision to remove the original names against a backdrop of nationwide protests over racial injustice. ✍️: Ben Finley apnews #shenandoahcountyva #confederateleaders #naacp #lawsuit #school #education #residents #shenandoahcounty #virginia #virginianews #virginiaschoolboard #localvirginia
