5 Student send home from Live Oak High School Morgan Hill
The parents of five Morgan Hill high school students who had been sent home right after displaying up in clothing emblazoned with American flags on Cinco de Mayo say the school’s decision was “un-American.”
The boys say the assistant principal of Live Oak High School told them on Wednesday to consider off their shirts or turn them within out because they have been offending some Hispanic students and school officials worried they could spark a battle.
The boys’ shorts and shoes also had American flags.
The boys say once they refused, they have been sent home.
Austin Carvalho, one of the boys, said they weren’t trying to start trouble. At least two from the boys are aspect Mexican.
Nick Boden, the school’s principal, declined comment. But Jay Totter, a spokesman for the district, stated district officials disagreed using the decision.
