A group of students at a western North Carolina high school built a wall made of boxes and blocked access to a common area, and their Latino classmates are upset.

The students were allowed into McDowell High School, about 100 miles northwest of Charlotte, on Wednesday to perform a prank as a teacher supervised them.

A photo of the wall with about 30 students standing in front of it was shared on Instagram and captioned, 'We built the wall first.'

Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee for president, has promised to build a wall along the US-Mexico border if he gets elected


Principal Edwin Spivey says one of the kids wanted to put a Donald Trump logo on it and was told he couldn't do that.

The wall was taken down before classes began on Thursday.

Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, has promised to build a wall along the US-Mexico border if he gets elected.

He said in a June 2015 speech announcing his candidacy: 'I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I'll build them very inexpensively, I will build a great, great wall on our southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall.'

At the time, he also said: 'When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best.

'They're not sending you. They're not sending you.

'They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us.

'They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.'

Spivey had a meeting with and said he was sorry to Marta Guardian and Johnny Campos, the two students told WLOS.

Guardian told the TV station: 'I'm proud of where I'm from.

'I'm proud to be a Mexican-American because I was born here.

'I was taught here. I learned about American culture, but I never left my roots.

'Some kids are left alone here because their parents are illegal, and their kids are left here because they are legal and their parents get deported.

'They separate families. That is not OK.'

Campos said in a statement to the TV station: 'I am the president of the Hispanic Youth Club.

'After this incident was brought to my attention, I asked to meet with our principal, Mr. Spivey.

'It was a very productive meeting and I believe Mr. Spivey will handle this in a way that helps everyone begin to repair relationships.

'McDowell High School is a great place, and I want the Class of 2016 to be known for building bridges for a better tomorrow - not judged by the insensitive actions of a few people.'

A school district spokesman says the students won't face any disciplinary action.

Brian Oliver told WLOS: 'In viewing the actual photo and what took place, there's not anything offensive in the photo.

'There was no offensive activity at the time.

'What became offensive or concerning was what took place on social media afterwards.

'So, it's hard for the school to have control or to take action against something that happened on social media that was outside school hours and outside any school network.'

No children should be left behind. They should be removed with their parents as a simple matter of parental custody. If the children believe they are US citizens, that is irrelevant, they are children of their parents first and have or are eligible for citizenship in their home country with their parents.

The policy of the US government to deport parents, and allowing minor children to remain here in the United States should be banned by Congress. When the parents are deported, they are removed as a unit, parents and children intact and sent to their home country as a unit.
