SCOTTSDALE, AZ — Scottsdale Unified School District is investigating an incident involving students reportedly defacing school property with hateful imagery.
The district confirmed to ABC15 that instructional material was damaged at Desert Canyon Middle School during studies of World War II and the Holocaust.
A seventh-grade teacher recently sent an email to families saying: ”Multiple unnamed students thought it was humorous to draw swastikas on the faces of deceased Holocaust victims; additionally unnamed students decided to tear and rip-up my posters about the Holocaust.”
The letter went on to read:

This school is in North Scottsdale, drawing students from communities like DC Ranch, Greyhawk and Kierland Commons. It's one of the whitest, wealthiest areas in the entire Valley. Solid red.
From the letter : many of our students are not expressing empathy
