Principal Lelonek seems like a good administrator too. Sadly, they’re not enough of them in the country. Hopefully, they’ll be consequences and important lessons learned in this case.

I hope the Jewish kids who were hit, hit them back.

when I lived in St. Louis, and this was 1978-81, I did a little substitute teaching in that district; not a lot because I moved away not longer after I started. However, I have nothing but good memories.

And let’s consider, Meryl, that “Hit a Jew” day could show these junior high kids are keeping up with current events. Quite possible they got the idea for “Hit a Jew” day from following the United Nations.

I lived in St. Louis for a year..and Chesterfield’s a VERY nice neighborhood.
Former Sen. Jim Talent lives near there.
That said…there’s a large number of Bosnian/Croatian muslims in the StL. area.
Ther aren’t a lot of Jews.
That MIGHT explain some of it.
I wonder what these kids are learning at home.
