NYC Schools Face Rising Antisemitism | US News
Description
A new report reveals a disturbing surge in antisemitic incidents across NYC public schools, with Brooklyn hit hardest—over 36% of cases. Nearly two-thirds of the tracked incidents involved harassment, vandalism, assaults, or threats, many directly targeting Jewish students and staff. Despite a “zero tolerance” policy, school leadership often fails to act, leaving hostile environments unchecked. Experts urge immediate NYPD response to hate graffiti, adoption of the IHRA definition of antisemitism, and better public tracking and accountability. The Department of Education insists it investigates every report—but critics say actions don’t match words.
