Description
-
This text is a petition addressed to the Loudoun County School Board, expressing concern over their plan to purchase land adjacent to the colored high school in Leesburg, Virginia. The petitioners argue that the land is needed for the expansion of the nearby Union Cemetery, which serves as a burial ground for the community. They also point out that only a few colored children attending the high school actually live north of Market Street, where the proposed land is located. The petitioners believe that the location of the land is not suitable for the future needs of the colored children's education, given its remote nature and distance from where the majority of the students reside. Ultimately, they request that the School Board reconsider their decision to purchase the land and prioritize the best interests of the colored youth in the community.
