There is a push by the never satisfied left, to remove a historical marker commemorating the Robert E. Lee Memorial Highway in downtown Charleston. The marker is located at the former Rivers High School campus, currently the Charleston Charter School for Math and Science, at the corner of King and Grove streets. This would be a clear violation of the Heritage Act by my interpretation. A show of public support would benefit the cause of keeping the marker in place. It is my recommendation to send letters of support to the following:

 

 

Mayor John J. Tecklenburg

P.O. Box 652

Charleston, SC 29402

 

Charleston Charter School for Math and Science

Mrs. Mary Carmichael  

1002 King St.

Charleston, SC 29403
