PEORIA, Ill. – A Peoria Public Schools teacher faces a court date after she allegedly failed to report child sexual abuse.
Jennifer Cummins, 40, was arrested Tuesday, and released from jail with a notice to appear in court, on charges of Permitting the Sexual Abuse of a Child, Leaving a Child with a Known Sex Offender, and Failure to Report the Sexual Abuse of a Child.
25 News reports Cummins has been a teacher at Annie Jo Gordon Community Learning Center.
A District-150 spokesperson says the district can’t comment on personnel matters.
Her biography is no longer on the district’s web site.
Illinois State law requires teachers to be reporters of cases of child abuse and neglect.
