Former Mayde Creek High School assistant principal charged with injury to a child after allegedly attacking a 14-year-old student

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — A former Katy ISD principal is facing charges after he allegedly assaulted a 14-year-old student earlier this month.

Mayde Creek High School assistant principal Adrian Lee Berg has since resigned following the Oct. 3 incident and is facing charges of injury to a child.

Records show that around 7:15 a.m., Berg was caught on video attacking the 14-year-old student with his body and pushing her against a wall after she got into a verbal altercation with another student.

Berg is also accused of putting his arm around the student's neck and throwing her to the ground.

The student was taken to hospital with injuries, but her condition is unknown.

Berg appeared in court Thursday and his bail was set at $15,000.

Katy ISD sent ABC13 the following statement:

“The individual is not employed by the district and resigned on October 8th. Harris County is the lead agency in the investigation. We cannot provide any further information at this time. At Katy ISD, providing a safe learning environment will continue to be our top priority and we will always act quickly when this is at risk.”
