Two more Long Island school districts have reported antisemitic incidents. The latest hateful displays were found in Commack and Syosset.

The Commack school superintendent sent a message to families at noon on Monday, notifying them that a swastika was found on a bathroom stall at Commack High School.

In Syosset, antisemitic symbols were seen on a whiteboard at Harry B. Thompson Middle School. A racial slur was also written on a desk at Syosset High School.

These incidents are the latest in a string of hateful acts at Long Island schools.

Other incidents have happened in Cold Spring Harbor, Port Washington, East Meadow and Riverhead.

The Syosset School Board of Education met Monday night to discuss the formation of an anti-bias task force.
