School board investigates anti-Semitic bullying at Ogden International

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Parents met at the Ogden International School Thursday after accusations that a Jewish student was the target of anti-Semitic bullying. Several students were suspended and the Chicago School Board is investigating the incident.

Lisa Clemente, an Ogden parent, says her son was bullied for being Jewish.

She shared a screen shot of the computer game in which a student apparently named his team "Jew Incinerator" with the description, "We are a friendly group of racists with one goal put all Jews into an army camp until disposed of."

Chicago Public Schools CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett issued a statement that said in part: "The principal at Ogden International High School has worked in cooperation with the network and central office to foster a larger community dialog around cultural sensitivity and has taken the appropriate actions to ensure this is a teachable moment for our children."

The Anti Defamation League is preparing a program for the Ogden students.

"This is a teachable moment but this is also something that has been very painful for the target, the target's family, the parents in the community and really for the greater community," said Jessica Gall of the Anti-Defamation League, "It's had a ripple effect."
