Confederate Flag Display Prompts Action

Officials are dealing with another  hate incident at Easthampton High School. 

The most recent problem  occurred Monday when a student was seen displaying a confederate flag in  the school's parking lot. 

That followed an incident late last month  when three students were arrested for confronting another student on  school grounds for allegedly posting racist language on social media.

At  a school committee meeting last night, Easthampton Superintendent Nancy  Follansbee said a Northampton-based educational services collaborative  will hold focus groups for parents, students and staff at the high  school to examine potential problems, starting Thursday.
