York Catholic High School acknowledged a former teacher’s inclusion in last week’s Diocese of Harrisburg list of clergy who’ve been accused of sexual abuse.

In a statement released on its website and labeled Friday night as “A message for the York Catholic family,” the school confirmed Father William Cawley taught there from 1988 until 2012.

Reactions to the statement were mixed on the York Catholic Facebook page.
