From Bethesda Beat, Reporter Caitlynn Peetz. Full story here.
A swastika was spray-painted on the side of Richard Montgomery High School and authorities are considering the case a hate crime.
In a letter to parents and students, Principal Intern Kiera Butler said the bright orange swastika was found over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend and has been removed.
And:
According to a county police report, 31 of Montgomery County’s 112 – or about one-fourth – reports of bias incidents in 2017 occurred at schools and generally involved vandalism. The majority of reports included anti-Semitic language or swastikas. In 2016, 21 bias reports involved schools.
