Scarsdale BOE president steps aside following antisemitic incident, according to letter

Scarsdale School Board president James C. Dugan will be stepping aside from his current role, following an antisemitic incident at the high school, according to a school board letter. Dugan will remain on the board for the remainder of the school year.

As News 12 has reported, flyers promoting a student-led Israeli culture club event were torn down and thrown away at Scarsdale High School last week. The principal said some of the flyers were found inside a urinal.

Parents were told that Dugan's daughter shared a photo of one of the flyers in a urinal on Instagram. Shared with the picture was text that said, "Keep up the good work."

Dugan condemned the initial incident.
