Lake Tahoe-area teacher accused of having sex with student

A teacher at a Lake Tahoe-area private school is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday on charges that she engaged in a sexual relationship with a male student.

Christine Johnson, 28, was booked May 13 at the Nevada County Jail in Truckee on suspicion of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

She was a history teacher at Squaw Valley Academy, a private boarding school with nearly 100 middle and high school students, located in Olympic Valley just north of Lake Tahoe.

Johnson had been scheduled to be arraigned this past Tuesday, but did not show up.
