“This incident does not represent our values,” the district superintendent says.
The student who brought the cotton balls was disciplined, although the type of discipline remains unclear.
Clark cited a delayed response to the incident, writing, “unfortunately, we as school and district leaders missed a crucial opportunity to turn this bullying and racist incident into a learning opportunity.” He added: “We have to directly address and reject all forms of offensive and divisive behavior within our school communities. Students need to be equipped with language to communicate their feelings, needs and emotions in an effective manner.”
