Video captures horrific moment a female student punches another girl 30 TIMES in the head while others in class laugh and watch at Las Vegas high school: Teen is charged with battery

 Graphic video circulating on social media shows the moment a teenage girl violently punched another student at her Nevada high school more than 30 times while classmates stood by and laughed.

The attack took place last Wednesday when an unnamed Las Vegas High School student storms over to another girl sitting in her seat and repeatedly punches her in the head from behind as someone - possibly the teacher - extends their arms to the attacker and yells: 'Stop, stop, stop. Get off of her.'


The girl being attacked at her desk lifts her hands up in an effort to protect herself but the other girl continues to pummel her in the back of the head and face.

Laughter is heard from students in the room as the attacker continues to strike, before she walks away.

The video ends with the victim face-down on her desk. She does not lift up her head. It remains unclear to what extent she was injured or what condition she is in.

The Clark County School District Police Department told KTNV a Las Vegas High School student was cited for battery last Wednesday.

The horrifying footage, totaling about 20 seconds in length, has prompted a call for action by members of the school community, with some arguing the district is unable to keep their kids safe.

A parent, sharing the video online, wrote: 'I am only sharing this simply to bring awareness to other parents or people for that matter, on how this sad joke of a school system ACTUALLY is.' 

'Save your kids! Pull them out of public school!' another social media user wrote. 'Don't let your kid become the next Clark County School victim! Pull them the hell out and HOMESCHOOL!!!' 

Las Vegas High School administrators said they are aware of the attack and are 'taking this incident very seriously'. 

'Violent acts, assaults, and bullying will not be tolerated in the Clark County School District, and those who choose to engage in these activities will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,' said Superintendent Jesus F. Jara.

Las Vegas High School Principal Ronnie Guerzon added: 'Administration is aware and responding to this matter and it is being addressed through the appropriate channels.' 

The principal also noted that all students are expected to follow the Clark County School District (CCSD) code of conduct and encouraged parents to talk to their children about 'appropriate behavior in class'. 

The district, issuing a statement to the told KTNV, added: 'CCSD investigates every reported case of bullying and takes appropriate action if needed. We are unable to discuss individual student disciplinary matters due to privacy laws.'

'However, in general, students can face administrative disciplinary action at school or be referred to law enforcement for possible criminal prosecution depending on the severity of the matter.'

While the school district said it cannot comment on what disciplinary actions were taken against the attacker, the Clark County School District Police Department has confirmed a Las Vegas High School student was cited for battery last Wednesday

School leaders also encouraged students to stop sharing footage of the attack, alleging that circulating the video 'serves no purpose other than to further ridicule and embarrass the victim and embolden bullies.' 

'Any student who captures photos or video of an assault on-campus, off-campus, on a bus or during a school activity should immediately turn the footage over to a teacher, school administrator or police. We investigate and address all concerns of bullying.' 

District police also responded to another violent attack that same week, the Las Vegas Sun reported. A 17-year-old girl at Legacy High School allegedly attacked a secretary after she was ordered to the principal's office.

The student and employee exchanged words before the teen picked up a radio and proceeded to hit the secretary. The attacker was taken into custody for battery. 

The school board, responding to concerns over safety in the schools, reiterated that its members 'take every incident of violence seriously, regardless of who commits the violence'.

Board president Irene Ceped argued the board and district leaders are committed to school safety and 'ensuring schools are places where students and staff feel safe, and education can occur.'
