ANDERSON, S.C. – Police are searching for illiterate vandals who tagged Palmetto High Freshman Academy and nearby businesses on Tuesday.

School officials told WYFF they discovered several messages spray-painted in blue on the building, a bus, and sidewalks when they arrived Tuesday morning, including one very ironic missive scrawled on a brick wall: “Shcool is a lie. Status Quo Confirmed!”

On the sidewalk in front of an entrance: “Teach us to think Not obey …”

The glass doors on another entrance read “Tell them the truth your,” while other messages included “Do not obey,” Teach us to think Not obey …” and “they don’t want thought! They want conformity!”

Williamston Police are investigating the incident and other graffiti at a nearby H&R Block and Unity Mortuary of Anderson, Chief Tony Taylor told the Independent Mail.

Anderson School District 1 officials told the news site a cleaning crew was working to remove the graffiti from the campus on Tuesday.

“Taylor said the graffiti messages don’t seem to be gang related, but more ‘anti-God’ or ‘anti-education,’” the Independent Mail reports. “Police planned to look at footage taken by surveillance cameras to identify the suspects.”

The spelling-challenged vandals certainly aren’t the first to bungle their five minutes of infamy.

Police in Rockville, Maryland are investigating racist messages left on a classroom whiteboard at Montgomery High School earlier this month that misspelled the n-word, Bethesda Magazine reports.

The incident also featured numerous other racial slurs at the minority-majority school, though it’s unclear whether the messages were hate speech as alleged or a hoax perpetuated by those it seemingly targets. Numerous folks have been arrested for hoax hate crimes targeted at churches, schools, and college campuses since President Trump’s historic win in the 2016 election, EAGnews reports.

Also, at Maryland’s Poolesville Middle School last summer, punks tagged the school’s windows with the message “8th Gade Rule” along with a smiley face, the Rockville Patch reports.

Folks who learned about the recent incident in Anderson expressed mixed reactions on Facebook.

“Lmao and too think I graduated from Palmetto High whoever did this needs too be recycled through school again so they may learn proper English,” Jay Shaw posted.

“Obviously ‘schooling’ is not getting through to someone,” Robert McDonald wrote.

“Open the door! Invite them in to English class,” Sherri Cole added. “This is obviously a cry for help.”

“$ says they can spell EBT,” Roger Carper wrote.

“Maybe they should spend more time inside the school and less time acting fools!” Stephanie Martinez posted.
