“A custodian found that a poster in a second-floor bathroom at Rye High School announcing a Class of 2022 fundraiser at Chipotle restaurant had been defaced,” he said.


“It is not yet clear to us if any student saw the graffiti. We are reviewing security footage to learn more.”

The incident remains under investigation.


“I encourage you to have conversations around this topic at home, as we will be having conversations at the high school,” Byrne added.
