In a Board of Supervisors meeting Wednesday evening, Peterson and two other supervisors criticized the school system for removing signs from Stonewall Jackson Middle School and Lee-Davis High School within two days of the School Board’s 4-3 vote last week.

“Sadly this is no longer my father’s Hanover. And it’s heartbreaking. I’m disappointed that you, the leaders of this amazing county, are allowing our home to be torn apart,” said Angela Ward, daughter of former county Supervisor Jack Ward, said in Wednesday’s board meeting. “I implore you, as our leaders, to stop the destruction of our beloved county.”
