  • Local leaders are mostly dissatisfied with the reaction of the county’s school board.

  • In the middle of the High Holy Days, Pope High School reported two incidents of anti-Semitic graffiti, while Lassiter High School and Simpson Middle School each reported one.

  • According to rabbis of congregations whose members attend those schools, the wrongdoers have been identified. “The two kids have been identified in the original drawing and they will go through the court system,” said Rabbi Larry Sernovitz, senior rabbi at Temple Kol Emeth. “I think it should be treated as a hate crime,” he said, referring to the graffiti at Pope.

Sad how some hateful people are all up in arms about a group of people simply existing.

Shalom

Would be fitting for Pope HS to let their students know that popes tried to protect Jewish communities for centuries, and anti-semitic students might want to reconsider their choice of school. Not that this is necessarily relevant, but just saying....
