The San Francisco Board of Education will ultimately keep the names of dozens of public schools in a case of high stakes second thoughts.
The Board had moved to forge ahead with a controversial plan to change the names of 44 schools that honor figures linked to historical racism or oppression. But on Tuesday the board voted unanimously to suspend the effort when it approved a resolution saying it wishes to avoid the distraction and wasteful expenditure of public funds in frivolous litigation.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 7 (Xinhua) U.S. San Francisco Mayor London Breed on Wednesday announced the opening of a new neighborhood COVID-19 vaccine site in the Excelsior District to bolster the city s ongoing efforts to ensure that highly impacted neighborhoods have equitable access to the vaccine.
The new site locates in the Excelsior District, which is home to many Latino, Asian and Pacific Islander residents and essential workers and has been one of the neighborhoods hardest hit by COVID-19, the announcement said. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, community organizations have worked hand-in-hand with the city to make sure San Franciscans have the resources and support they need, said Breed. We re making good progress getting COVID-19 vaccines to people throughout San Francisco, and this new site is part of a broader strategy to reach people where they live.
