Warren Township High School students found the phrase "White's [sic] Only" scrawled in a girls' restroom.  The school was quick to respond with a statement, also reporting that in addition several copy cat incidences of graffiti popped up shortly thereafter.

Dear WTHS Parents:
Below is a follow up on the email which was sent home earlier in the day today regarding racially insensitive graffiti in washrooms.
Some students at our Almond Campus who were feeling very concerned organized a sit-in after 5th period today in our library hallway. During 6th period, Mr. Keeley used this as an opportunity to hold an impromptu student meeting and hear their concerns. Approximately 200 students participated. The Administration plans to follow up with groups of students and parents to further investigate these concerns.
Additionally, three "copycat" examples of the graffiti were also found on washroom stalls at our O'Plaine campus on Thursday. The graffiti was immediately removed and our Deans and the Gurnee Police are investigating these incidents as well.
We are asking parents to please communicate with their children on the critical role of tolerance and an appreciation of diversity in our lives. We also ask that you remind them to please report any information they have about inappropriate conduct to the school administration as soon as possible.
Thank you.John AhlgrimSuperintendent of Schools

Kudos to Warren Township for not dismissing this as a 'joke' or a 'prank' as with recent events The Trump Effect has reported, but taking it seriously.
