Release: Administrators with the Smith County Board of Education very recently received a report of alleged inappropriate conduct between a certified professional employee and students. The school system immediately launched an investigation and reported the issue to law enforcement. Based on initial information revealed, the certified professional employee was placed on suspension and is no longer present in the school system. Recent media reports have detailed an arrest and charges surrounding this individual and the investigation is still ongoing. Law enforcement has directly contacted the parents of any students involved and will make any necessary future contact. The school system cannot provide any information that would violate student privacy rights or in any way impede this ongoing investigation. The Board of Education and its staff fully cooperate with law enforcement to ensure the safety and security of all Smith County students.
