Woman charged with committing sex offenses against student while teaching at Central

A woman who taught high school science has been accused of having sex with a student.

Riley A. Stone is accused of forcing the victim to submit.

The employee of Tuscarawas Central Catholic Junior/Senior High School was let go on July 20. She was employed by the company for a long time.

A judge put a student teacher on house arrest.

The allegations of inappropriate behavior first came to light on July 13, 2022, when the former student shared the story with school staff. The allegations were immediately reported to the appropriate authorities.

Stone admitted to the allegations in the indictment, according to the detective. Stone admitted to "inappropriate conduct."

A judge sentenced a man to a year in prison.

The Tuscarawas County grand jury charged that the offense began in February and continued through May. Stone is accused of using a minor in nudity-oriented material in February and March of 2019.

Stone graduated from Kent State University in May of last year. The online resume includes student teaching at elementary, middle and high schools in Mogado, as well as teaching assistants at Tuscarawas Central Catholic Elementary School in Dover.

Mays said anyone who may have claims of abuse by teachers, clergy or others associated with the church should notify law enforcement immediately as well as the diocesan victim's assistance coordinators, who can be reached at (866) 448-0217 or helpis available@columbuscatholic.org.

Student safety and well-being are of paramount importance to the administration. Child protection is taken seriously by the Diocese of Columbus. The perception of child abuse is something the Diocese of Columbus is aware of.
