The officials said that it could create negative impressions to other school children. The red baseball cap with the statement is considered a sign of campaign for the Republican candidate for presidential election Donald Trump.

The third-grader Logan Autry said that principle ordered to take it off, but he still didn’t take it off. The principle mentioned that we are not against any candidate of presidential election, but it was considered against the specific dress code of the school.
