GREENVILLE, Texas - The mother of a Black student is stunned and outraged over the picture she says a white teacher sent her with that teacher's foot on her son's neck.

Greenville ISD in Hunt County confirms the picture was taken at an elementary school Tuesday. The district calls it "staged," but it has suspended the teacher while it investigates.

The teacher is on leave following the incident. The family and others in Greenville want her fired for putting her foot on a student’s neck.

A 10-year-old Black student at Lamar Elementary School in Greenville was seen in a picture with a foot on his neck.

The boy’s mother says his white teacher texted it to her Tuesday. The foot in the photo is the teacher’s, according to the family.

Lakadren Moore is the boy’s aunt. She says the picture was sent shortly after the verdict was read in the Derek Chauvin trial.

Moore says her nephew told them the teacher called him out for acting out in class. The family says the teacher told the boy if he didn’t get his work done she would put her foot on his neck.

According to the family, the boy and other students said she would not and he got on the ground and that’s when the picture was taken.

"You don’t do that to a 10-year-old. You don’t do that to a child. Period," Moore said.

Reminds me when Shaquille O'Neil did Nike ads with his show print on the face white people who were on the ground.

I just can’t get over anyone, in any location, doing something so stupid, taking a picture, and sending it to an involved party.

Teachers sometimes wonder why the market doesn’t value them as they believe they should be valued ... well, there you go.

Per an article in today's paper, the boy's mother stated that she has known the teacher for years and did not suspect any evil intent.

The teacher meant it as a joke but was obviously not thinking very clearly.
