LINCOLNIA, Va. — A 44-year-old school counselor is facing charges after reportedly headbutting an 11-year-old student earlier this month.
According to the Fairfax County Police Department, Craig Small has worked as a school counselor at Glasgow Middle School in Lincolnia since 2011. On Tuesday, April 16, investigators say an 11-year-old student called Small a derogative name, to which Small headbutted the student before carrying him out of the cafeteria.
Detectives have since arrested Small on a misdemeanor assault and battery charge.
Fairfax County Public Schools has confirmed to WUSA9 that Small has been placed on administrative leave.
