A graduate of Ben Lippen School - a Christian boarding school formerly located in West Asheville - is suing a former female teacher and the school, alleging years of sexual abuse. Rachel Howald says in the lawsuit filed Jan. 15 in Buncombe County Superior Court that Pamela Kaye Herrington, a teacher and coach at the high school, sexually assaulted her repeatedly from 1986-88 when she was 16 and 17 years old, and that the school provided multiple opportunities for the teacher to victimize her. The alleged assaults took place in dormitories and Herrington’s campus apartment, in school vehicles used for transporting student athletes, at school athletic events off campus, in hotel rooms during travel for sports and in Howald’s own home, according to the suit.
