On May 12, the state office announced the poster was being returned but did not identify who took the poster.

Two local Republicans who were in the room said they were unaware the poster had been taken and instead criticized what they saw in the classroom.

Steven Dyer of Rockland said he was concerned about what was coming out of that school from those students. He said the posters made by students were anti-American, anti-white and anti-religious.

Dyer took photographs of the posters and posted them on his Facebook page.

William Chapman of Rockport also said the posters were very negative about the United States and its military. He said he has received a number of complaints about the posters.

One poster cited by Dyer was a collage that showed former President George W. Bush without eyes and saying, "I can still see the face of evil." Dyer said he was also offended by a poster that had a swastika in the place of the "O" for FOX News.

Chapman said he was offended by the poster that portrayed the Nestle company in a poor light for its efforts to extract water for its Poland Spring bottling plants.

The teacher, however, said these critics have completely missed the point.
