Spring ISD released the following statement:
“A Dueitt Middle School paraprofessional was removed from her duties after school administration was made aware of the video. Though preliminary statements collected indicate that the student and the paraprofessional may have been engaging in playful behavior, the district considers the behavior unacceptable. The district is currently performing a full investigation into the matter. We believe students learn best in a safe, orderly environment, and this behavior does not represent our district’s values.”
