Following reports that a Jewish student has been repeatedly subjected to anti-Semitic comments at West Jefferson Middle School in Conifer, Colorado, Anti-Defamation League Mountain States Regional Director Scott L. Levin issued a press release and was also interviewed by Denver CBS News 4 reporter Rick Sallinger. The CBS report indicated that both the student and a teacher at the school have filed separate reports with the Office of Civil Rights at the Department of Education.
“We wanted to make sure the young woman was safe, that she had talked to the school, [and] that the authorities at the school were giving her the type of support she needed,” Levin said.
