PORT ANGELES — Douglas J. Allison, a former private school teacher who pleaded guilty to raping and molesting two 10-year-old students, was sentenced Wednesday to 26½ years in prison.

The 55-year-old was the head teacher and principal of Mountain View Christian School near Sequim.

He pleaded guilty last month to two counts of first-degree child molestation and two counts of first-degree child rape for crimes that occurred during his classes last fall and winter.

Clallam County Superior Court Judge Christopher Melly sentenced Allison to 318 months — the top end of the standard sentencing range — and a life of community custody.

“I think that justice deserves it, but I think more importantly, the girls do,” Melly said.
