George Washington Elementary School was renamed for Dr. Charles Richard Drew, a black surgeon who organized blood banks during World War II.

It's not like George Washington was the first president or a general in the Revolution or anything; he was just another slave-owner, so his name should be erased from history.

Here's an idea. Rename GWES after a different figure in science: GEORGE WASHINGTON Carver.
