Town Reacts to Teacher Arrests
July 10, 2025
• Needham is acting through its town departments and the Needham Public Schools to support students in the wake of three arrests of teachers on pornography charges.
While there is no evidence that Needham students have been directly affected by the arrest of three educators on child pornography charges in recent months, the community has taken steps to facilitate conversations, answer questions and counsel students and their families. We spoke with school and town officials about the resources available and what can be done to foster honest and open communication.
