CORSICANA, Texas — An assistant principal at Collins Intermediate School in Corsicana was airlifted to a hospital Thursday after getting injured during what officials are calling a “classroom disruption.”
School officials in a statement Friday morning said Candra Rogers was injured in the incident and is improving. More details on her condition and injuries were not released.
According to a letter sent to parents by Principal Tiffany Boortz, there was a “disruption in a classroom” on Thursday that resulted in Rogers getting injured. The incident happened in a classroom with less than 10 students, officials said Friday, but more details about what happened were not released.
No other students or staff were in danger and the campus was placed on “Hold” status while the staff member was tended to, Boortz told parents.
The student involved in the incident was detained, and officials said charges are pending.
“Our prayers are with Mrs. Rogers and her family, but also the family of the student, those in the classroom at the time, and the entire Collins campus, our school district, and our community,” Corsicana superintendent Stephanie Howell said. “This has been an extremely upsetting and difficult situation as you might imagine, but we take the safety not only of our students, but also of our staff very seriously. Both remain a priority for Corsicana ISD.”
Rogers joined the Corsicana district last semester, officials said. Her husband, Eugene Rogers, is in his first season as the Corsicana High School football coach.
