Beverly Hills public schools will display Israeli flag in bid to fight anti-Semitism | 26 Aug 2025 | The Beverly Hills Unified School District's Board of Education approved a proposal Tuesday night to display the Israeli flag on all campuses and district facilities in recognition of Jewish American Heritage Month in May. The proposal is part of a resolution to combat anti-Semitism that also calls for educating students about Jewish history and commemorating Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah), International Holocaust Remembrance Day, and Oct. 7 as a Day of Remembrance of the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel. The resolution passed in a 3-2 vote, with board President Rachelle Marcus voting no due to fears that displaying the Israeli flag would make schools a target... The resolution has also raised concerns that displaying the Israeli flag doesn't simply signal support for the Jewish people but also represents support for the Israeli government and its actions in Gaza, where more than half a million people are living in famine amid the ongoing war.
