CORSICANA, Texas - A Corsicana ISD administrator was flown to the hospital after being injured at school.
The school district said Collin Intermediate School Assistant Principal Candra Rogers was seriously hurt on Thursday during a "classroom disruption."
There were fewer than 10 students in the room at the time.
The student responsible was detained. Criminal charges are pending, and disciplinary action will be taken according to the Student Code of Conduct, the district said.
"The safety of our students and staff remains a top priority, and our thoughts are focused on our colleague during the recovery process," said Collins Intermediate Principal Tiffany Boortz.
The community gathered at the school on Friday morning to pray for Rogers.
Her husband, Eugene Rogers, was recently hired as Corsicana High School's head football coach.
"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," 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."
The school will have counselors and extra security on campus as needed.
Corsicana is in Navarro County, about 55 miles south of Dallas.
