A New Jersey school district has agreed to pay $325,000 to a former teacher who says she was forced to digitally edit out a student's Donald Trump MAGA t-shirt from a yearbook photo.
The Wall Township school board approved the settlement agreement with Susan Parsons on Tuesday but made no admission of wrongdoing or liability over the 2017 incident.
Parsons sued the school system back in 2019 saying she was ordered to edit out the Trump t-shirt from the yearbook to make student Grant Berardo look like he was wearing a plain navy blue T-shirt.
The removal of the T-shirt sparked outrage among parents in the community, which Trump won in both 2016 and 2020, and hit national headlines amid accusations of censorship.
