NAVASOTA ISD INVESTIGATING AFTER STUDENT POSTS PHOTO WITH WEAPON – POSSIBLY ON CAMPUS
A Navasota ISD student and their parents have been barred from school property pending an expulsion hearing after the school district says the student posted a photo online appearing to possess a firearm on campus.
In a statement this (Friday) afternoon, Navasota ISD said that personnel were notified late Wednesday night of the post on the student’s social media account.
The school district said it has reason to believe it can prove that the student was on Navasota Junior High School property when the picture was taken. It added, however, that it cannot currently tell when the photo was taken, but confirmed that the student was not at school on Wednesday.
District and campus officials met with Navasota police Thursday morning and continued their investigation throughout the day. The student was again not present at school on Thursday.
Per the district, no weapon was found on campus, and the investigation with police is ongoing.
