Parents of students at a public high school in Maine are outraged after the institution tried to recruit students to work on Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign this week.

Students at Marshwood High School received an email from the Clinton campaign asking them to sign up for positions as unpaid 'fellows' in order to fill the school community service requirement, reports Fox News.

Tim and Elita Galvin told Fox News that they found the email to their son and other students to be 'disingenuous and sneaky,' and said that both they and their son are not supporters.

'My son didn’t appreciate being targeted by anybody via his school email for a political campaign,' Mrs. Galvin told Todd Starnes of Fox News.

'I’ll be honest – he’s not a fan of Hillary Clinton to begin with. He’s done his homework and he doesn’t like her.'

When the Galvin family reached out to school Principal Paul Melhorn he told them that the school regularly emails students about potential opportunities.

Melhorn said that the students are under no obligation to participate in any one activity and hat it doesn't mean that the school, 'supports a particular political candidate, religious doctrine or branch of military.'

'If other "campaigns" were to seek volunteers, we would pass that on also,' he added.

School superintendent Mary Nash told Fox that the school should not get involved in political affairs.

'If you want to campaign for someone – that’s fine – but that’s between the child and the parents,' she said.

‘That’s not for the campaign to target you at school and it’s not for the school to suggest to you. That’s between you and your parents.'
