Swastikas, racial epithets and other racist graffiti were found etched on bathroom stalls at Lakeville South High School on Monday. School officials said the student involved "will face disciplinary action."

In a statement on its website, the school district said, "We take these matters seriously and strive to create a safe, welcoming environment for all students in our schools. Our maintenance staff has begun work to repair the damage."

The district declined to comment further.
