Dear Beagle Parents,

We have become aware of a racist image circulating on social media that contains a picture of an edited replica of a Beagle teacher webpage. As soon as we were made aware of the image, we began an investigation. What we have determined is that a student made a copy of the teacher web page and then used widely-available web editing tools to make it look like it was the teacher’s actual web page. The students who made the image and started the circulation of the image have taken ownership for this and are being held accountable. Unfortunately, many have continued circulating the image despite its false origins.

Grand Ledge Public Schools does not tolerate racism in any form and we are continuing to work to live up to our strategic plan promise of creating a safe and inclusive environment for all.

Sincerely,

Dave Kushman

Principal
