School Officials Condemn Racist Graffiti Found in Brockton High Bathroom
Two incidents have taken place over three days.

BROCKTON, MA — Racially charged graffiti found inside a boys' bathroom at Brockton High School will not be tolerated, Superintendent Kathy Smith said this week.
The school experienced a pair of incidents this week, according to the Enterprise. On Tuesday, racially charged graffiti was found in a bathroom and on Thursday, similar graffiti and a swastika was found in another bathroom.
Smith said a third incident involving a person writing Adolph Hitler's name on a chalkboard took place in December, but she thought that was an isolated incident. Following the latest incidents, Smith and Brockton High principal Sharon Wolder have reached out to staff, parents, Brockton police and the Anti-Defamation League.
