Prep-School Teacher Meredith Hollen Arrested for Sexually Molesting Student

by Anne-Marie Nichols

meredith_hollen.jpgIn Denver, Colorado Meredith Hollen, 40, faces two counts of sex assault on a child and one count of sex assault on a child by a person in a position of trust. She teaches at Graland Country Day School, an exclusive prep school for kindergarten through ninth grade.

Police report that Hollen did not been teach at the school this year and that the alleged assault happened before this school year. However, they were only recently notified of the abuse.

I wonder why? Did the school try to hide it? Or more likely, the parents did not go to the authorities until recently and maybe only at the urging of the school, a lawyer, or a medical professional.

Hollen taught eighth-grade English, but left at the end of last year to move with her family to California. One news report says the victim is no longer a student at the school. However, neither the school or police are confirming whether the boy student had attended Graland.

The police are also declining to give the age of the boy, invoking prohibitions on identifying juvenile crime victims. However, Hollen was charged with sexually assaulting a minor, age 15 to 17. Since the school went up to ninth grade, you have to wonder if it was the one of the older students who could have been 14 or 15. Or maybe this was a kid outside of school, like a neighbor or a kid in her care.

Hollen was released after posting a $50,000 bond. Parents at the school were notified of the incident in a recent newsletter.
