MONTAGUE, MI –A school district in western Michigan responded to a social media photo shared over the weekend where players from a high school football team were seen posing with a banner supporting President Donald Trump.

In a statement release by Montague Area Public Schools late Sunday, the district acknowledged that players from the Montague High School football team were seen in a photo, without directly referencing the Trump Banner.

The district went on to say that the photo was organized by parents and students and not with the help of anyone associated with the district. The district also discouraged similar activities in the future.

The entire statement was posted on the district’s Facebook page and can be read below.
