Racist, inappropriate images found at Montgomery Co. high school
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- An investigation is underway into racist and inappropriate images found at a high school in Montgomery County. The incident happened at Upper Moreland High School on Tuesday evening.
A visiting boys basketball team from Cheltenham reportedly found the images written on a dry-erase board in the visiting locker room. The Cheltenham School District tells CBS3 that Upper Moreland High School's principal apologized for the incident and promised to investigate the incident.
Upper Moreland School District officials say the incident does not represent the school community and that nondiscrimination is a focus across all schools, classrooms and facilities.
The Cheltenham School District said on Thursday, "staff members met with each team member to check on them and give them an opportunity to discuss their feelings. In light of this incident, counselors and other staff at the high school will also be available to talk to any students individually or in small groups."
