The video was filmed in November 2018 before an after-hours, off-campus student athletics banquet, the Garden Grove Unified School District said in a statement. According to the school district, the video was shared among a small group of students on social media.

It was not brought to the attention of the administration of Pacifica High School until March of 2019, four months following the banquet, at which time school administrators took immediate action and addressed the situation with all students and families involved,” the district’s statement read.

The district would not give details of how the students were disciplined, citing federal lawthat protects student record.

The Garden Grove Unified School District and Pacifica High School say they  strongly condemn the video.

The district’s statement read,

Pacifica High School, along with our other district schools, will be working with students, staff, and parents to continue to address these issues in the fall in collaboration with agencies dedicated to anti-bias education.”
