MIDLAND, TX — In a contentious 4-3 decision late Tuesday evening, the Midland Independent School District (ISD) Board of Trustees voted to revert the name of Legacy High School back to Midland Lee High School, honoring the Confederate general Robert E. Lee. The move reverses a 2020 renaming aimed at distancing the institution from its controversial ties to the Civil War era, and it will also apply to the associated freshman campus and a future high school site.
