Prosper ISD Board to Meet in Special Session Tuesday
The school board responded to parents with a statement read aloud during the August 29 school board meeting.
"We understand and share the community’s outrage over the allegations that a former Prosper ISD employee sexually abused students,” said board president Drew Wilborn. “It is our understanding that Prosper ISD administrators took swift action upon receiving a complaint about this former employee. These actions included communications with law enforcement officials, CPS, and parents in the district.
Following that board meeting, Prosper ISD made the move to hire and launch an independent investigation into the assaults. The lawsuit does not name the elementary school the girls attended but states that the alleged abuse was captured on surveillance footage. According to court filings, the accused bus driver was arrested in May and booked into the Collin County jail on charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child, continuous sexual abuse of a child victim under 14, and indecency with a child sexual contact. The lawsuit states Paniagua made an attempt on his own life in jail and later died from his injuries.
