Parents Outraged After Student Claims Teacher Banned Her From Picking Trump as ‘Hero’ for Project, Allows Obama (VIDEO)

Some parents in Lake Ronkomkoma, New York were outraged when their daughter was allegedly forbidden from choosing President Donald Trump as her hero for a class project while another student was allowed to choose former President Barack Obama.

According to a report from Long Island News 12, sixth graders at Samoset Middle School were assigned a class project to choose one figure they looked up to as a hero. The students would then write up a report on why they believed the person they chose was a heroic figure.

Sixth-grade student Bella Moscato was given a homework assignment where she was to write about who she considers a hero.

Bella picked Donald Trump.
