The Riverhead Central School District board held a special Board of Education meeting Tuesday following the discovery of swastikas at the high school.

In a letter to parents, the superintendent says someone drew symbols of hate on desks.

The letter dated Sept. 22 says the students known to be sitting in the desks were interviewed and their parents were notified.

The news comes weeks after children say they were called racial slurs and pushed to the ground during a football game.

The school’s superintendent, Dr. Augustine Tornatore, maintains that the district’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) plan is sufficient, and they took action against the people believed to be responsible for using racial slurs and shoving young children.

Tornatore says there is a board meeting coming up where the incidents will be publicly addressed.

The NAACP Long Island branch president and his supporters say they will be there.
