Marin County Teacher Accuses Students Of Sexual Harassment

MILL VALLEY, CA -- A Marin County teacher this month accused some of her students of sexually harassing her during her time at Tamalpais High School. Eva Rieder, who has been teaching for 15 years, told school board members students have touched her inappropriately and sent her "obscene emails," according to the East Bay Times.

Rieder's comments come during the #MeToo movement, a campaign that encourages victims of sexual harassment and violence to speak out against their abusers.

East Bay Times reported that Rieder told school board members, "I have been touched more than once by a student who also argues it’s OK to describe his masturbatory habits in the classroom."

Rieder described the actions as "so graphic that they are unfit for this public audience, but I can provide them if needed," the newspaper reported.

East Bay Times reported Rieder's comments come after a Redwood High School teacher also admitted to being a victim of sexual harassment.

The district told the newspaper it is investigating the allegations.
