Teacher Charged With Having Sex With Student

ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) -- A Pennsylvania woman has been charged with having sex with a student at the Maryland school where she taught.

Montgomery County police say Ashley Jean Campbell of Cochranville, Pa., was arrested Thursday.

Campbell, who taught at Montrose Christian School in Rockville, is charged with two counts each of sexual abuse of a minor and a fourth-degree sex offense.

Police say the abuse of the 16-year-old student lasted from the fall of 2010 through last month.

School officials contacted police last week upon receiving an anonymous tip.

A phone listing for Campbell, 27, could not immediately be found. It wasn't clear if she had a lawyer.

The school said in a statement that Campbell no longer works there and that none of the incidents took place on campus.
