FAIRFIELD A local high school principal announced the creation of an organization to address discrimination after a student was arrested last week when he posted a photo with another classmate and a racial slur on social media, police and school officials said.
Lt. Antonio E. Granata said police were called to Fairfield Warde High School on May 7 to investigate a Snapchat post with a racial slur written in the caption. Granata said the derogatory text on the image of the student was directed toward a juvenile classmate, also in the photo.
