LAKE BUTLER, Fla. (AP) _ A group of Union County High School students might be facing disciplinary action for a noose that was found in a classroom this month.

Union County High principal Alex Nelson called the noose ``horseplay,'' and said the families of the six students don't think the incident was racially motivated.

Nelson said the students started to make nooses while one or more of them was practicing tying knots for a Future Farmers of America project.

The noose was found hanging from a ceiling fan May 11.
