Administrators at a charter school have fired one of its teachers who was seen beating up a student in a video taken by a classmate’s camera-phone.
The teacher under question, identified by a charter school spokeswoman as Sherri Davis, was officially terminated by the school on Monday night.
“Now that officials at Jamie’s House Charter School have been able to review the video on Fox News, we are horrified at the actions of the teacher,” principal David Jones said, in a statement.
The disturbing video of a sixth grade student being kicked and pummeled has also been turned over to Harris County Sheriff's investigators.
The teacher attacked 13-year-old Isaiah Johnson at the north Harris County charter school in late April, according to the teen’s ******.
"I'm horrified. I just can't believe something like that would happen to my *****," said Alesha Johnson.
The ****** goes on for nearly a minute. Isaiah Johnson said it felt much longer.
"I was on the wall like this trying to get away from her and she started hitting me, banging my head to the wall and kicking me," Isaiah said.
