Controversy

The school responded by making plans to adopt a diversity program by the Anti-Defamation League, but dropped it after complaints that the diversity program focused too heavily on race and gender. A Jewish student was reprimanded by the school for posting a video of a teacher inviting his class to give a Nazi salute during a lesson on how symbols can change over time. [56]
