Twitter post of Baraboo High School students. (Photo: Screen grab) 
 
 A photo posted on social media of dozens of Baraboo High School students giving a Nazi salute has drawn condemnation from the school district. 
 
 Tweets say the photo shows the entire male class of either 2018 or 2019 giving the salute. Some students are believed to be giving a white power salute as well. 
 
 The photo was taken last spring. 
 
 If anybody from Baraboo High School in Wisconsin can clue me in on why it appears the entire male class of 2018 is throwing up a Sig Heil during their prom photos - that would be great.

 The school district posted a message on its Facebook page Monday. 
 
 "The photo of students posted to #BarabooProud is not reflective of the educational values and beliefs of the School District of Baraboo," the post said. 
 
 "We are investigating and will pursue any and all available and appropriate actions, including legal, to address."

 Later Monday morning, the district sent the following e-mail to district parents: 
 
 "Early this morning, a photo that was taken last spring of some Baraboo School District students who appear to be making extremely inappropriate gestures began circulating on social media. The District has confirmed at this time that the photo was not taken on school property or at a school-sponsored event. 
 
 "The school district is investigating the situation and is working with parents, staff and local authorities. If the gesture is what it appears to be, the district will pursue any and all appropriate actions, including legal, to address the issues. 
 
 "With that, we want to be very clear: The Baraboo School district is a hate-free environment where all people, regardless of race, color, religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin or ancestry, are respected and celebrated." 
 
 The note was signed by Superintendent Lori Mueller. 
 
 The photo appears to have been taken on the steps of the Sauk County Courthouse before last spring's prom.

 The photo also drew a response from the Auschwitz Museum, which tweeted "It is so hard to find words...." 
 
 The museum added: "This is why every single day we work hard to educate. We need to explain what is the danger of hateful ideology rising. Auschwitz with its gas chambers was at the very end of the long process of normalizing and accommodating hatred."

 Another tweet from a now-deleted account includes this message: "We even got the black kid to throw it up."

 Democratic Gov.-elect Tony Evers condemned the photograph. 
 
 "The actions displayed in this photo have no place in Wisconsin. As elected officials, we have a responsibility to lead by example for a generation growing up in a climate where they see this behavior condoned," Evers said. "I will be in contact with Baraboo officials, but we must all be clear: intolerance and bigotry must never be tolerated, in our schools or anywhere else." 
 
 Lt. Gov.-elect Mandela Barnes added that such actions would not be tolerated. 
 
 "Wish I was shocked, but the comfort they share in embracing supremacist culture is the most obscene part. This happens when the behavior is increasingly more excused and/or promoted," Barnes tweeted. "It cannot be tolerated, ignored, or inconsequential. This will not be us." 
 
 The Baraboo area is represented by State Sen. Jon Erpenbach (D-Middleton), who said he was appalled by the photo and wants to know more about how it came to be taken. 
 
 "I saw it and it's disgusting," he said. "There is absolutely no place in the world for something like that." 
 
 The Baraboo police department said in a Facebook post that it was aware of the photo controversy and officers are assisting the school district's investigation.

– The photo has triggered an uproar, and the hashtag that reportedly accompanied it hasn't helped. A photo (see it here) taken in the spring was recently posted online, and it seems to show roughly 50 male members of Wisconsin's Baraboo High School Class of 2019 posing on the steps of the Sauk County Courthouse as many appear to make the Nazi salute. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports other students are believed to be displaying a white power salute, and #BarabooProud reportedly appeared with the photo. Journalist Jules Suzdaltsev retweeted the photo late Sunday, and it has since garnered enough attention that school administration and law enforcement have weighed in. Baraboo School District Administrator Lori Mueller tweeted that "the photo of students posted to #BarabooProud is not reflective of the educational values and beliefs" of the district. "The District will pursue any and all available and appropriate actions, including legal, to address," she continued. The Baraboo Police Department weighed in with this: "The Baraboo Police Department is aware of a controversial photo of a group of high school students that has been posted to social media. Officers are assisting the Baraboo School District with their investigation into this matter." The Journal Sentinel reports the Auschwitz Museum weighed in, with a tweet beginning, "It is so hard to find words..." The Baraboo News Republic reports the school was last embroiled in controversy in 2012, when students drove around displaying Confederate flags in what they said was a tribute to a dead friend.
