Overview
- Fairfax County Public Schools said the unauthorized Instagram posts by Langley and Thomas Jefferson MSA chapters depicted violent mock kidnappings and could traumatize Jewish students.
- The district said the content was unacceptable and that any students found to have violated the Student Rights and Responsibilities would be held accountable, with reviews ongoing.
- Several students at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology were reported to be suspended in connection with the video, according to multiple outlets.
- One Langley video showing a student hooded and put in a car trunk was deleted, while the Thomas Jefferson classroom skit remained online at the time of earlier reporting.
- The Jewish Community Relations Council called the videos chilling and urged transparent accountability, while CAIR objected to the reported suspensions as discriminatory and raised First Amendment concerns.
