FILE - In this Oct. 18, 2018 file photo is a sign urging the Dixie School District to retain its name in San Rafael, Calif. The Dixie School District in the California city of San Rafael has voted to keep its name despite criticism from some who say it is linked to the Confederacy and slavery. School officials said they would revisit the issue later. The school board voted Wednesday, Feb. 13, 2019, after more than five hours of public testimony over changing the name of the 150-year-old district that supporters of keeping it say came from a Native American woman, Mary Dixie.
