Ann Arbor police investigating graffiti inside Community High School
Someone spray-painted graffiti inside Community High School in Ann Arbor this week, police said.
Officers found graffiti in three locations inside the school: black paint on a window that read KETO, illegible black paint on a red door and the letter Q with other unreadable letters inside a boy's locker room, Bush said
Some of the graffiti was noticed earlier in the week but not reported to the police by school authorities until Friday morning.
The school is located at 401 N. Division St. in Ann Arbor. Detectives continue to investigate, Bush said.

Ket? (??) or ket?jin (???), a derogatory term in Japanese referring to a white person.

There are graffiti tags all over Slauson Middle School in the stairwells. They were made by a now 9th grade student - why haven't those made the news? And the administration knows who it is.

I'm a bit concerned that (evidently) pranksters have total access to the facilities without supervision or "checking-in" at the front office (2nd floor). You would think that in light of recent school shootings CHS would at least consider keeping tabs on who is running around the halls?

It's part of the "culture". If they wanted rules, they could go to the "factory school".

We were allowed to paint our lockers when I was there... As well as most walls, desks, bathroom stall doors, stairwells...

I thought the whole idea behind Community High was artistic expression. Why all the fuss?

Go around outside the building... you'll find more. My wild guess is one of two... entrpreneurial marketing groups staking out spring territories or disenfranchised malcontents and n'er do wells that would have been caught on camera.
