Harding was released on personal recognizance pending her next court date in May. She was ordered to stay away from the victim and witnesses, and prohibited from having unsupervised contact with children.
Harding‘s lawyer called the allegations “outright lies and fabrications” in comments to The Boston Globe. He also said Harding had an “an exemplary career” as a teacher.
Hudson School Superintendent Marco Rodrigues said district officials had not received any prior reports suggesting Harding harmed students. He said she voluntarily left in 2013 after seven years.
Harding was fired four years later from the Needham school district, and reached a settlement with the town last year in a wrongful termination suit, the newspaper reported.
