Lanier Middle School principal reassigned without explanation

Campos is listed in district payroll records as an "hourly principal," a title typically given to experienced administrators who temporarily fill in for principals during an absence. She also is listed as an assistant professor of educational leadership at the University of St. Thomas, located about a mile southeast of Lanier.

In a statement, HISD officials said they would not comment on Bradarich's reassignment "due to the fact this is a personnel matter." District officials did not disclose Bradarich's new assignment.

Efforts to reach Bradarich Tuesday were unsuccessful.

Lanier is HISD's fourth-largest middle school, serving nearly 1,500 children. About half of the student population lives in the school's zone, one of the wealthiest in HISD, while the other half transfer in from across the district.

Bradarich joined HISD in 2016 as an assistant principal at Furr High School after spending 15 years as an educator in the Chicago, St. Louis and Houston areas.

Although HISD officials have said former Furr principal Bertie Simmons oversaw widespread grade and records manipulation, leading to her placement on leave in October 2017, and eventual departure from the district in September, Bradarich has not been publicly linked to any wrongdoing there. District officials have not disclosed any evidence to validate their findings of misconduct and denied records requests for investigative reports generated by an outside law firm, calling them protected under attorney-client privilege. The timing of Bradarich's reassignment suggests it is unrelated to the Furr investigation.
