SHAWANO – Law enforcement officials are investigating a claim of sexual abuse of children at a private school in Shawano.
George Lenzner, chief deputy with the Shawano County Sheriff’s Office, said the department received an anonymous report last week accusing an employee of St. James Lutheran Church, School and Early Childcare Center of sexually abusing children at the school.
Timm Griffin, interim senior pastor at the church, said an employee has been placed on administrative leave. However, he added he would not discuss the sexual misconduct allegations and how they relate to the employee on leave.
