Prosecutors in Smith County, Texas charged Robinson in December with Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child Under 15-years-old.
Robinson is being held at a Delaware County jail where he is awaiting extradition to Texas.
What they're saying:
U.S. Marshals in Pennsylvania said Robinson's arrest shows that "sexual predators will always be pursued relentlessly."
The Radnor Township School District said Robinson has been placed on leave and will not have contact with students.
"Parents of the limited number of children to whom the employee was assigned were contacted by the administration immediately."
The district said it is cooperating with law enforcement and has "no information indicating misconduct involving district students."
