LEVITTOWN, NY — Levittown School District Superintendent Todd Winch sent out an email to the community Saturday denouncing instances of "derogatory, inappropriate and hateful language and images" involving students off campus, according to Newsday.

The email was sent the same day that Division Avenue High School, one of two high schools in the district, forfeited its varsity homecoming game against the East Meadow school district's W.T. Clarke High School, the outlet reported.

However, it is unclear whether there is a link between the canceled game and the alleged incidents.
