A wall near the student entrance of Burlington High School was tagged by vandals Sunday night.Blue spray-painted graffiti stating "Happy 420" was discovered Monday morning on the south side of BHS near the student parking lot. The letters were about five feet tall.
"The assumption is somebody wrote it in reference to April 20 being the anniversary of Columbine," said BHS Principal Tom Messinger, referring to the 10th anniversary of the massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado. "But you know, in terms of how we know that, that's just a stab in the dark."
The number "420" also could refer to a counterculture holiday that celebrates the consumption of marijuana.
"I just heard this afternoon that it was, like, national pot day," Messinger said. "I had never heard that before."

That principal is a jamoke. My wife taught at BHS, and went to UVM, and let me tell you...the whole city shuts down at 4:20 on 4/20. Take a guess what they do in the public?
