Today's Lower Hudson Journal News reports on a class action lawsuit filed last month in a New York federal district court charging the Mahopac (NY) Central School District with anti-Semitism. The complaint alleges that Jewish students in Mahopc face a strong anti-Semitic environment. It claims that Jewish children in the Mahopac schools "are subjected to the widespread use of racial and religious epithets and slurs, including being subjected to depictions of swastikas and other symbols and references to Nazism and the Holocaust ... not only by students but also by school officials themselves." School system lawyers say that the school system denies the allegations.
