Kurt Jones Chicago police
A former Chicago Public Schools principal has been charged with a felony in connection with allegedly throwing a plastic water bottle at a school lunchroom worker, hitting her in the head and leaving her with a concussion.

Kurt Jones, 46, the embattled ex-principal, resigned late last week after a CPS investigation uncovered many misconduct allegations against him and concluded he conducted himself in a “categorically unprofessional” manner in his four years at a top-rated CPS school, Franklin Elementary Fine Arts Center.

CPS officials began investigating after Jones allegedly threw the bottle on March 20 and hit cafeteria manager Faye Jenkins in the face. Jenkins suffered a concussion and other facial injuries.

More than three months later, Chicago police arrested Jones Thursday and charged him with aggravated battery of a school employee.

Jones is due in bond court Friday afternoon.

    A bad time to be a M-2 charged with a felony. There goes the pension if convicted.
