Alabama News The process to rename three high schools in underway in Montgomery Public Schools. The schools are Jefferson Davis High School, Robert E. Lee High School and Sidney Lanier High School. Those three schools are named after men tied to the Confederacy. Last year, during national protests over the treatment of Black Americans by police and in society, a petition was circulated to demand the school names be changed. The Montgomery County school board formed a re-naming committee to seek new names. That committee is seeking public input on what the new names should be. The suggestion form will close May 21. The committee will consider the suggestions, but final approval will come from the Montgomery County Board of Education.
