A video is sweeping the internet of a Snook Independent School District employee trying to discipline a young student with violence.
The shocking video was captured by the boy himself, whose mother then posted the video to her Facebook page. In the video below, you can see the teacher grab her son by his arms and push him into a bean bag chair.
The teacher says to the boy, “When I tell you to do something, you do it, boy! When I tell you to sit on that blue beanbag, you do it. Let’s try it again.” According to KXXV.com, the district says the Snook ISD employee is a behavioral specialist who was attempting to exert discipline and control over the student.
The principal was alerted about the situation by another student in the room. Since being posted on Facebook, the video has been viewed at least 200,000 times and shared more than 7,000.
Snook ISD then posted a statement on their Facebook page Thursday night saying, “The Snook ISD Administration became aware of an incident of concern in which a Snook ISD employee was attempting to exert discipline and control over a young student. The incident was immediately reported by another student to the principal. The principal did an excellent job in quickly obtaining and preserving available video evidence from school cameras and a student’s mobile device. The instructor was immediately removed from duty pending a full review and investigation of the matter. Our top priority is for our students to be treated in a safe and respectful manner when they are in our care.”
There is an open investigation at Snook elementary since the incident and the Burleson County Sheriff’s Office said that they first learned of the video through social media. According to a fellow Snook ISD parent, the mother of the child seen in the video has since removed her son from the school.
