- District leaders said the shirts were a math-themed costume reused from 2024 and shared documentation supporting that timeline.
- Superintendent John Carruth apologized for the confusion and said the shirts will not be worn again.
- Teachers were doxxed and received death threats, and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department deployed additional deputies to the campus.
- Andrew Kolvet acknowledged the prior-year use and later deleted his original post after media contact, while some political figures kept pressing for firings or questioned the district’s explanation.
