Glenbrook South High School is addressing concerns among students and their families after a controversial statement was published in the 2023-2024 yearbook, “Etruscan.'

Glenbrook South High School is addressing concerns among students and their families after a controversial statement was published in the 2023-2024 yearbook, "Etruscan." The piece in question, titled "October 7 War in Gaza," has sparked reaction within the school community after a quote from a 10-year-old student said in part, "… I saw what Palestine did, and I was happy because they're finally defending themselves.

" In a letter, school officials said the statements in the piece do not represent "the views of Glenbrook South or District 225." "We recognize the feelings, fear and pain related to the content in the yearbook, and we want to assure you that we are in conversation with many students, families, staff and community members about this situation," the school said. School staff became aware of the situation Thursday and launched an investigation.
