Ten North Naples Middle School students were suspended last week after district officials said they participated in “kick a Jew day.” District Spokesman Joe Landon said a student told the dean of students at dismissal on Thursday that she was kicked because it was “kick a Jew day.”
According to Naples News, Principal Margaret Jackson asked that anyone with information on the incident come to the office and speak with her or the assistant principal as they investigated the incident. It was determined that 10 students should be punished. The students received a one day, in-school suspension, which was served today. The parents of the 10 students were also called and conferences with the parents followed the phone calls, according to Landon.
The actions of these 10 students are deplorable and patently anti-Semitic. The Jewish students were singled out, harassed and assaulted for no other reason but because of their ethnic background. These students should be punished for violating Florida's new anti-bullying law and if they were physically assaulted, then it rises to the level of criminal misconduct and they should be punished as such.
