LAPS District Leaders: 

What is the District plan to address the instance of Nazi hate speech and symbolism that
occurred in White Rock on Wednesday, May 1? 

What EQUITY EDUCATION is being offered to LAPS students in light of this matter and the events they are witnessing happening on college campuses nationwide?

What SUPPORT is being provided to local students and families of Jewish descent who may have seen the rock before it was covered with grey paint or learned of it in school? 

Is this matter being investigated by the Los Alamos Police? 

Bigotry and hate are bred in silence and ignorance. 

Jai and I know EXACTLY what this feels like and the trauma/fear/anxiety it causes.  Please tell me and other parents/students in this community that the LAPS District and local police have a plan to address this most recent act of racial/ethnic hate.
