CONCORD (AP) — The Winnisquam Regional School District is denying liability in a lawsuit filed by two women who say they were sexually abused years ago by the same New Hampshire teacher.
Lawyer John Teague said Friday that the district did nothing to make it negligent.
Two women are suing Winnisquam alleging they were repeatedly molested as students in the 1970s and 1980s by former biology teacher Walter Garland. They claim administrators did nothing to stop the abuse.
Garland, who denies the allegations, is now an assistant principal at Exeter High School.
Garland has been on paid leave since Nov. 3.
A third woman is suing the district alleging she was molested during the same period by a guidance counselor.
