Tuscaloosa City Schools received a number of complaints after a high school math teacher projected an image of Donald Trump firing President Barack Obama in his classroom on Wednesday, the school system confirmed.

"We were made aware of it last night after school hours," City Schools spokeswoman Lesley Bruinton said.

Northridge High School math teacher Scott Johnson used a projector to display the image of Donald Trump onto the white board in his classroom. Under Trump's face are the words: "Obama, You're Fired."

Bruinton said she couldn't comment on how long the image was projected, or if the teacher was asked to take the image down.

"Our school system will take any action deemed necessary as a result of it," she said, adding that the incident remained under review on Thursday afternoon.

"We recognize people are concerned and that is why they have reached out to us," Bruinton added.

She said she couldn't say whether or not Johnson had further campaigned for Trump in his classroom.

Pictures from Johnson's classroom were shared by parents on social media.

Russell Howard, who is a Tuscaloosa native but not a parent, sent pictures from the classroom to AL.com

"After an extremely divisive election, what message does this send to the students in his classroom?" he said. "An educator has absolutely no right to advance their ideals and beliefs onto students."
