Virginia School Praises Hitler as a ‘Strong Leader’ then Expel the Jewish Classmate that was offended

 

According to a complaint filed in Virginia’s Office of Civil Rights, the Nysmith School for the Gifted in Herndon allegedly assigned students in October 2024 to create art projects highlighting “strong historical leaders.” 

One finished drawing depicted Adolf Hitler’s face—sparking controversy as classmates later subjected a Jewish 11‑year‑old to intense antisemitic harassment. 

When her parents complained, the school allegedly canceled a Holocaust survivor speaker, displayed a Palestinian flag that seemed to embolden the bullying, and eventually expelled all three Jewish siblings on March 13, 2025, citing a “lack of trust.” 

The lawsuit, brought forward by the Brandeis Center, seeks damages and mandatory antisemitism training.

Gezeiras Chinuch in England: The head of the largest yeshiva in Europe, Rabbi Avrohom Gurwicz of Gateshead Yeshiva, has warned the Orthodox community in the UK to leave if proposals to change the status of yeshivas become law. The bill would subject religious institutions to inspections and government oversight, which Rabbi Gurwicz says poses a "terrible danger" to the 75,000-strong Charedi group.
