The district announced he was fired Oct. 15, 2016. The district ... more When a Central Texas child tried to get up from a bean bag chair in his classroom, he was met by his teacher’s hand and was tossed down again, and again. After a concerned parent posted a video of a Snook Independent School District behavior specialist tossing a small boy into a classroom bean bag chair over and over again, the footage was shared thousands of times on Facebook, where many wondered what would happen to the employee if the footage was authentic.
The man, later identified by KVUE as Troy Vann, in the video tells the child: “Tell me no. When I tell you to do something, you do it, boy.” RELATED: Harlandale ISD elementary teacher resigns following 2nd DWI, drug possession charges Snook ISD, about 13 miles southwest of College Station, released a statement Oct. 15 announcing Vann had been fired and the district was working with law enforcement and the Texas Education Agency to look into the incident. The announcement came two days after the district was made aware of the incident by a student who saw what happened and reported Vann. District Superintendent Brenda W. Krchnak said the behavior specialist “acted in an inappropriate manner when dealing with a young student.” “The actions depicted in the video are not condoned or authorized in any way by the school,” Krchnak said. “The individual in question is no longer employed by Snook ISD.

Vann was hired in August 2015 and there was “no indications of concern regarding this employee’s conduct,” the superintendent said. “As Superintendent, I am ordering a review of Snook ISD faculty and staff use of discipline and restraint,” Krchnak said. “Our top priority is for our students to be treated in a safe and respectful manner when they are in our care.” The child’s mother, Jessica Boson, told KVUE she cried after watching the video of her son and Vann. “I was in disbelief because I had a phone call from the school saying it was a video, but it was nothing to worry about — they were just trying to get him to sit down,” Boson said. “And then, when I seen the actual video, tears flooded my eyes.” RELATED: Ex-South Texas math teacher pleads guilty to sex with junior high student The video was posted to Facebook by Stacy Williams. She told KVUE her 8th grader Exavier Williams took the video and went to Kenzie Bond, the principal, with his concerns.
Exavier Williams said Bond erased the video from his phone. Krchnak told KVUE Kenzie Bond, the principal, sent the video to her, and erased it to protect Exavier Williams’ identity. Exavier Williams, however, sent the video to another phone as backup, and his mom later posted it on Facebook. Stacy WIlliams and Boson told the news station they would be removing their children from the school district. On Oct. 14, Stacy Williams updated her Facebook status to say “SHUT DOWN SNOOK SCHOOL.”Moving is what we do. Little Guys is what we are.
