The seventh-grade teacher, who has not been named by the school district, handed the award to Lizeth Villanueva, 13, a day after the deadly terrorist attack at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England.
Villanueva said a group of teachers were giving out the awards as a joke, as part of a mock ceremony ahead of summer vacation.
