A teacher at an elementary school in Wisconsin was charged with sex crimes involving a young boy – the second teacher from the school to be caught sexually abusing a child.

Abigail Faust – a fifth-grade teacher at Rivercrest Elementary School in Hudson – was arrested for allegedly kissing one of her students.

The 24-year-old teacher is now being accused of molesting a different child in December of 2024, whom she nannied.

On September 29, Madison Bergman, 25, pleaded guilty to abusing an 11-year-old boy in her class at the same school and faces up to 18 years in prison.

While authorities were investigating Bergmann in May of 2024, they were informed about concerning behavior by Faust, according to KSTP.

The outlet reported that a college friend of Faust reported the relationship to Child Protective Services after the teacher told her about the relationship with the boy.

An aide at the school also reported to police that she noticed Faust was very close to a child.

Reportedly, the time frames of her victims overlapped one another.

As Faust was accused of abusing a 15-year-old boy whom she had been nannying since 2021.

She then allegedly kissed a different fifth-grade student at the end of the school day.

The victims saw Faust on the news because of the allegations, and their parents reached out to each other, according to The Independent.

Faust allegedly said that she was in love with one of the boys after she found out she was going to be charged, according to deputies.

The former teacher was charged in August with failure to protect a child, causing mental harm to a child, child enticement, and sexual misconduct by school staff in August of this year.

Police searched the teachers’ messages and found that they were discussing their relationships with the children.

The mother of Bergmann’s victim told police that her son had heard about the inappropriate relationship between Faust and the other child, according to the outlet.

Bergmann pleaded guilty to a sexual relationship with an 11-year-old boy.

Her soon-to-be husband left her after finding out about the heinous crimes she had committed.

The school district released a statement about the incident: ‘We recognize that trust is essential in our school community, and we remain committed to providing a safe learning environment for every student.’

‘Over the past year, the Hudson School District has strengthened training for staff on professional boundaries with students.’

‘A committee of administrators and staff partnered with Wisconsin Awareness to Action, a child sexual abuse prevention organization, to review and refine District policies and procedures that reinforce staff expectations regarding professional boundaries’

The district also said that it has increased communication with families to ensure they understand the expectations and restrictions between staff and students during and after school.

They added: ‘This news can impact our students and staff in unexpected ways. Going forward, the School District is committed to providing any needed support to our students and staff as they process this information.’

The Daily Mail has reached out to Faust’s attorney for comment.
