The Mexican flag was flying outside Reagan High School Wednesday morning alongside the U.S. and Texas flags.

Reagan principal Robert Pambello decided to fly the flag after a discussion with his students, according to HISD spokesman Terry Abbott.

When someone saw the flag and complained, the regional HISD supervisor called the principal and ordered him to remove the flag.

Abbott said possible punishment for Pambello is under discussion.

Several students from HISD and other area schools have walked out in recent days to protest proposed immigration laws down being debated in Washington.
