Montana students rock ‘Trump 2016 White Pride’ t-shirts to homecoming

Two Montana high school students attended a homecoming event on Thursday wearing tee shirts that read “Trump 2016 White Pride” and “White Power.”

While the Polson High School students were immediately called to superintendent Rex Weltz’ office and asked to change their clothes, the image of the two of them went viral after someone snapped a picture of them before they were asked to change.

“Those pictures have circulated far past Polson,” Weltz said in a statement, according to the Missoulian. “We are disappointed in the actions of those few students and will take appropriate action based on our policies and procedures.”

The homecoming event was perhaps ill-planned as well, as it was called “Color Wars” and asked the students in each grade to wear an assigned color: black for seniors, white for juniors, blue for sophomores and green for freshmen.

The students involved were temporarily suspended over the tee shirts.

“We applaud the students who stood up against this conduct and will continue to educate all of our students about our policies and practices forbidding discrimination,” Weltz said.
