Hundreds of people pack into the West Side Elementary School in Charleston, WV.
It's another push to change the name to honor the late educator, Mary C. Snow.
Snow was the first black principal in Kanawha County after integration.
In December the board voted 3 to 2 to keep West Side Elementary the same name.
But they held a forum on Thursday, February 2nd, to hear from those pushing for the name change.
