A shocking complaint filed by the Virginia Office of the Attorney General alleges that the Nysmith School for the Gifted expelled three Jewish children in March 2025 after their parents reported persistent antisemitic harassment targeting their 11-year-old daughter.The complaint, brought by Brian Vazquez and Ashok Roy on behalf of their children, accuses the school and its headmaster, Kenneth R. Nysmith, of religious discrimination and unlawful retaliation under the Virginia Human Rights Act.The complaint details a disturbing pattern of events, starting with a social studies class project in October 2024 that depicted Adolf Hitler’s face as an attribute of a “strong historical leader.” This image was reportedly shared with the entire school community.The Vazquez-Roy’s daughter then became the target of “severe and pervasive anti-Semitic harassment and bullying.”According to the complaint, classmates allegedly placed pro-Palestine stickers on school laptops and lockers, taunted her for being “Israeli,” and called Jews “baby killers,” wishing death upon them due to the conflict in Gaza. The harassment reportedly included cruel taunts about her deceased uncle, falsely claiming he died in the October 7th Hamas attacks. ...

That project "was shared with the entire school community" and contributed to "a pattern of persistent and severe anti-Semitic harassment," the complaint alleges. ...Children in the school allegedly placed "pro-Palestine stickers on school-issued laptops and lockers" and taunted the Jewish children for being "Israeli."
