Adolf Hitler Baby Photo in NJ's East Brook Middle School Yearbook Sparks Investigation
The school retrieved distributed yearbooks after learning a baby photo in the baby pictures section was identified as Hitler, Principal Ryan Aupperlee said.
- East Brook Middle School in Paramus, New Jersey, collected yearbooks after administrators discovered a baby photo of Adolf Hitler in a student collage. The school is working to replace the books.
- Before publication earlier this month, the 1889 image bypassed proofreading stages. A teacher alerted staff after students began signing yearbooks, prompting an immediate investigation into how the photo appeared.
- Classifying the inclusion as a "bias incident," the Bergen County Prosecutors Office investigated the matter rather than pursuing criminal charges. Officials confirmed the student responsible has been identified, though specific consequences remain undisclosed.
- Principal Ryan Aupperlee condemned the inclusion, stating, "An image of him has no place in a yearbook." Paramus Mayor Chris DiPiazza added the incident "doesn't represent Paramus" or its 27,000 residents.
- Teachers emphasized that while the mistake is serious, it should not define the student's entire life. Administrators remain committed to ensuring the publication reflects "respect, inclusion, and dignity" for every member of the community.
