The California Department of Education has ruled in two appeals cases that unlawful discrimination against Jewish and Israeli students occurred at Berkeley Unified School District schools. The CDE has mandated discrimination prevention training for some BUSD students and staff.

One case of unlawful discrimination involved posters displayed in a Berkeley Independent Study, or BIS, classroom that featured phrases such as “Stop the Bombing FREE FREE PALESTINE” and “STOP Israeli/US Genocide in Palestine!” According to BUSD’s initial internal review, additional posters addressing the Holocaust were also displayed in the classroom, which BUSD argued presented an “anti-discrimination message.”

BUSD concluded that the presence of posters may have been “one-sided” but did not by itself constitute discrimination based on a protected characteristic. BUSD’s conclusion was appealed, and the CDE determined the posters “contribute to a discriminatory physical classroom environment” toward Jewish and Israeli people. The CDE mandated discrimination prevention training for all BIS teaching staff.
