A private Christian school teacher in Virginia has been arrested amid allegations of child sex crimes, WSET first reported.
Katelin Campbell, aged 34, who works as an English teacher at CH Friend School in Halifax County, was arrested on Thursday. State prosecutors claim that Campbell engaged in consensual sexual activity with a minor who is at least 15 years old, as reported by the outlet.
School administrators said they acted immediately once the allegations surfaced.
“Within one hour of receiving this information, two members of our Board of Directors went in person to the South Boston Police Department to report what had been disclosed to the school,” Dana Jones, the headmistress of CH Friend School, told Fox News Digital.
“No contact with Ms. Campbell nor action regarding her employment was necessary due to Ms Campbell submitting her notice of resignation to be effective immediately on August 4th at 6:25 p.m., the same day the school was made aware of the allegations,” she continued.

While it remains unclear whether the alleged victim was a student at the school, the Commonwealth’s Attorney confirmed to WSET that the minor involved is a male.
Campbell now faces two felony charges, including indecent liberties with a minor by someone in a custodial role and consensual sexual activity involving a minor aged 15 or older.
According to jail records, she was booked at the Halifax County Adult Detention Center and has since been released on bond.
Fox News Digital has reached out to the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s office for comment.
The Halifax County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the arrest but said the South Boston Police Department investigated the case. Fox News Digital reached out to South Boston police.
