Protesters carrying American flags began arriving at Perry High school early Monday after parents say school administrators on Friday demanded their children remove clothing and accessories promoting President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” logo.

A group of students wore red MAGA-themed hats and other clothing items for a spirit day with a “Party in the USA” theme last week. One student brought a Trump flag.
