The principal of Commodore Sloat, Fowzigiah Abdolcader, notified parents Wednesday of the need to come up with a new name, because John D. Sloat was a colonizer who “claimed/stole” California from Mexico, according to the committee.

They realize California is not in Mexico, right? Maybe we should give it back, since these people clearly aren't a fan of the people who made it part of the US.

In a September meeting, panelist Mariposa Villaluna urged the committee to include Thomas Edison Elementary School on the list to change, saying he euthanized animals, including Topsy the elephant

I guess naming schools after veterinarians is also out of the question, then.

That work includes a recommendation to change the name of Dianne Feinstein Elementary. The school made the list because, as mayor in 1986, Feinstein reportedly replaced a vandalized Confederate flag, one of several historic flags flying in front of City Hall at the time.

hahahahahaha

Abraham Lincoln High is also on the list, based on the former president’s treatment of American Indian and native peoples.

I seem to recall this Lincoln guy doing something very important regarding another minority group... but nah, let's focus on the fact that he didn't always treat Indians in the most kindest way possible. It's not as if practically everyone else was treating them the same way during that time...
