Statement from RPS

Rochester Public Schools has fully cooperated with the Rochester Police Department in its investigation into the racial slur posting on the bridge over East Circle Drive. Though the findings are regrettable, we are grateful that the investigation has concluded. We are eager and committed to continuing the work we started within our schools to address the root causes of prejudice, bias, and discrimination and to create an environment where all people feel valued and included. We will support the legal process as appropriate as it moves forward in the days and weeks ahead.
