An item in a high school yearbook mislabeling Israel as Palestine has sparked controversy in the Temecula community and has the school district looking into further action.

In a section highlighting world events in the 2023-24 Temecula Valley High School yearbook, a close-up map of Gaza and Israel labeled parts of Israel as Palestine.

In response to complaints from the community, district officials said they were planning to take several steps, outlined in the letter. They include refunds for the yearbook, helping families remove the page and offering a sticker that can be placed over the caption. “I know it was hurtful, I know it was hurtful to me but until I know the motives I don’t want to attribute something harmful,” Schwartz said. “That is not how I do business.”
