ATKINS – An employee of the Atkins School District is free on $2,500 bond after being arrested on first-degree sexual assault charges Monday.
Katy Flory, 34, was arrested and released a short time later from the Pope County Detention Center on Monday.
The River Valley Leader reports that Flory was the subject of a recent investigation by the Atkins Police Department into an inappropriate relationship between a school employee and an 18 tear old student. According to information on the Atkins Schools website, Flory was a member of the support staff at Atkins Middle School. She also served as President of the Atkins Elementary School parent teacher organization.
Flory is the daughter of legendary former Atkins football coach Charlie Sorrels, who passed away earlier this year.
