California high school student Jaevhen Ferrumpau recently wore a sweatshirt to school he got from the “World Ag Expo” in Tulare.

It features the expo’s logo with a cow’s head among a cornucopia of fruit and vegetables, along with a large green John Deere tractor and another red tractor plowing a field.

“To me, it represents Tulare all in one picture. … It has the big John Deere, it has the chopper, it has the cotton, the grapes, the cow on it,” he told KMPH. “It represents Tulare and we’re the bread bowl.”

But the 15-year-old said officials at Kings Valley Academy II took exception with his attire and forced him to remove it. The reason: colors on the sweatshirt are “gang colors.”

“They straight up told me either you take it off or you go home,” he said.

“Red and blue can be identified as gang colors so we just eliminate that from our school centers,” Kings Valley principal Shellie Hanes told the news site.

Because the sweatshirt contains those two popular colors, it’s off limits, even if the clothing obviously has nothing to do with gangs.

“When we start making exceptions that’s where we start getting in trouble,” Hanes said, insisting the school supports families that rely on the local agriculture industry.

“We have kids who actually work on farms and that might be one reason they come to our program is they want to work during the day or they need to provide support for their family and so they’ll come here and we’ll work around their schedule, so we absolutely supporters, just no red or blue,” she said.

Ferrumpau contends the color ban is cramping his style.

“Worked ag all my life, I support it,” he said. “I even got ‘California Diaries’ on my phone. It’s just me. That’s what makes me, me.”

The incident is only one example of unnecessary censorship is California schools this week.

In Fresno, Clovis North High School student Maddie Mueller is fighting her school’s ban on Make American Great Again caps, the latest in harassment she said conservatives at her school have faced during her time there, KGPE reports.

Clovis Unified School District officials contend the MAGA hats violate school policies that allow students to only wear solid school colored hats, but Mueller contends the polices violate students constitutionally protected freedom of speech.

“How does being a patriot in trying to show pride in your country, how is that inappropriate?” Mueller questioned.

Regardless, the senior said she won’t back down in promoting her conservative perspective, whether school officials like it or not.

“The school is demoralizing and degrading patriotism,” she said. “I’m fighting for the generations of kids who will walk in to my school in the future.”
