Teachers in a Houston-area school district have been disciplined after a seventh-grade student received a "Most Likely To Become A Terrorist" certificate during a mock end-of-the-year awards program.

Lizeth Villanueva, 13, told The Washington Post that her teacher "just laughed" when she signed and handed the Salvadoran-American girl the certificate at Anthony Aguirre Junior High in Texas. Teachers held the awards ceremony for two honors classes on Tuesday – the day after more than 20 people were killed in a suicide bombing at a concert in Manchester, England, which officials are investigating as a terror attack.

Lizeth's mother, Ena Hernandez, told the paper she was upset and mad when she saw her daughter's award. Lizeth has been doing well in the school's honors program, her mother said.

Lizeth was not the only student to receive a controversial award.

Teachers gave another girl a “Most Likely To Cry For Every Little Thing” certificate, and a boy was awarded “Most Likely To Become Homeless.” Teachers in the room laughed with each award presentation, Lizeth told the Post.

Channelview Independent School District spokesman Mark Kramer called the certificates a "poor attempt to poke fun," according to KPRC-TV in Houston. The school's principal also personally apologized, Hernandez told the Post.

District officials additionally issued a statement, calling the awards "insensitive and offensive."

"Channelview ISD would like to assure all students, parents and community members that these award statements and ideals are not representative of the district's vision, mission and educational goals for our students," the statement said.
