Two school officials in Danville have denied charges of failing to report a case of suspected abuse.
Superintendent Martha Tucker and Principal Noah Noyes both pleaded not guilty on Monday.
Police say Tucker and Noyes failed to report allegations to the Vermont Department of Children and Families that a teacher at the Danville School inappropriately touched a student April 29. They are both charged with misdemeanor failure to report suspected child abuse and neglect of duty by a public officer.
The teacher has not been charged. The Caledonian Record reports that police say the case is still ongoing.
