On May 19, Bowman was arrested after “concerned parents” led deputies to investigate a relationship between her and a male student.

The Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office said Bowman began a relationship with the student in March of last year.

In an arrest affidavit, authorities alleged that she sexually abused the student about 10 times.
