Statement from Superintendent of Schools: Incident 6/19/25
We are deeply disheartened by the recent act of vandalism at our High School, which included the posting of a racial slur on our sign. This incident is not reflective of the values we uphold in our community. We stand strongly against any form of discrimination and are committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful environment for all.
A vigilant community member promptly removed the offensive message and notified us, allowing swift action to be taken. Our High School Principal and School Resource Officer have successfully identified the individual responsible for this reprehensible act. We will be following our Code of Conduct to address this matter appropriately.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the community members who assisted in addressing this incident. Your alertness and proactive response are commendable and exemplify the strength and unity of our community.
Together, we stand against hate and discrimination, and we will continue to work towards ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.
Thank you.
Dr. Runner, Superintendent
