A decades-long attempt to rename the Dixie School District in San Rafael will be revisited on September 4 at the monthly meeting of the school board, proponents of the rename attempt said.
Advocates of the change say the name is a reference to slavery that is out of touch with Marin County values. The campaign to change the name began in 1997 and the last vote on the name change was in 2003. The school board did not pass the proposed change.
