An educator at a Christian school in Alabama is accused of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a female student, with the school describing the allegations as deeply distressing for everyone connected.

Sarah Huggins Logan, a 35-year-old teacher at North River Christian Academy, was apprehended and charged by the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office on Friday after news of the alleged misconduct surfaced, as per reports.

The incident came to the attention of the authorities on Wednesday when the parents of the student, reportedly a minor, discovered their daughter was involved in a sexual relationship with a teacher, AL.com informed, quoting Capt. Jack Kennedy.

The sheriff’s Violent Crimes Unit kicked off an investigation and nabbed Logan following interviews and obtaining other evidence, authorities reportedly said.

Logan, who no longer has a job at the school, was charged with school employee engaging in a sex act — and more charges could be coming, Kennedy told the outlet.

The age of the student was not immediately known. It’s also unknown when the illicit relationship allegedly took place.

North River Christian Academy said in a statement Friday that school officials became aware of the accusations earlier in the week and notified police, cooperating “completely with the responsible agencies.”

“Our first concern is for the health and welfare of our students, staff, and families. Please respect the privacy of all these parties. Contributing to rumors and suspicions profits no one and contributes only to the hardships experienced by those impacted,” the school said in a Facebook post.

“It should be self-evident to say that this incident is heart rending for all involved. This includes especially the families directly impacted.

“We have prayed for them and encouraged our entire school family to hold them up in their personal prayers. This situation is easy for no one; there are only degrees of difficulty.”

The academy began when the Open Door Baptist Church started offering day care to children of working mothers in 1981, expanding to a pre-K through 12th grades institution, according to the school’s website.

The school’s motto is “Equipping students to glorify God in all they do.”

With the investigation into Logan continuing, Kennedy, the sheriff’s captain, told AL.com police are asking other possible victims to step forward.
