I think you might be referring to black face, which is definitely extremely offensive, but not what this is. You can see only one side of his face is painted. This is just him painting half his face in the official school colors (black & blue) for a sports pep-rally. Think of it more like Braveheart rather than a racist costume.
I don’t know what the reasoning is but I know what it looks like – and this is not cool.

Your reply is reassuring thanks.
