re: Protesters want name for new Kingsville school revisited (WS, March 1)

I was happy to see the recent Windsor Star story comparing the naming controversy over Amherstburg’s high school to the current Kingsville situation.

I’m 70 years old and attended General Amherst High School. I worked for the Town of Amherstburg and have a lot of respect for it.

But we had no chance of getting our preferred name, Amherstburg District High School (the new school is called North Star High School). Amherstburg ‘district’ includes Malden, where I grew up, and Anderdon townships.

I certainly hope Kingsville can get what we lost.

Residents are tired of not having any say any more.
