Even DCPS Communications had it in the "Morning Briefing" we receive in our email. My hypothesis would be that Dr. Vitti, not being from Jacksonville or paying attention to local issues before he came, was surprised by the passion the issue provokes. He is focused on the budget since he needs people to understand why so many hiccups occurred this year and why on October 1 he and his team are still working to fix it.<br /><br />BTW, IMO let's rename all the schools and be done with it: Forrest, Jeff Davis, Stuart, Kirby-Smith, etc. We're living in the 21st century now. As a compromise, let the schools keep their mascots for a historical reference: Rebels, Raiders, and so forth.Greg Sampsonhttp://about.me/gregory.sampsonnoreply@blogger.com
