East Central Independent School District said it is working with the FBI and other state and local agencies to find out who is responsible for circulating a flyer promoting the Ku Klux Klan.

Two flyers were discovered by a staff member and a student on the East Central High School campus. After the student found the flyer, which reads “Save Our Land Join the Klan,” he sent a picture of it to his mother. The student’s mother posted the photo of the flyer on social media, alerting school officials to the situation.

A flyer found at East Central High School is being investigated.

“Whether the flyers were a prank or intentional, this is very concerning to ECISD and we will punish the individual accordingly when caught,” ECISD spokesman Brandon Oliver stated in an email to the Rivard Report.

The person responsible for the flyers “will be caught and punished to the fullest extent of the law,” he stated.

The district spokesperson encouraged anyone with questions or information that could help the investigation to contact the East Central Police Department at 210-634-6240.

“This behavior is not tolerated at East Central ISD and not reflective of our core beliefs and inclusive environment,” Oliver said.
