Sexual abuse allegations at elite Carpinteria boarding school prompt sheriff s investigation Brittny Mejia, Colleen Shalby
Law enforcement authorities are investigating reports of sexual abuse and misconduct by a former employee at the elite Cate School in Carpinteria, months after campus officials told alumni that they launched their own internal look into potential abuse that could date back decades.
The investigation into allegations at the private boarding high school began on April 1, after the Santa Barbara County Sheriff s Office received a report from a mandated reporter outside of the school, said Raquel Zick, a public information officer with the sheriff s office. The alleged abuse occurred while the suspect was employed at the school and on school property, authorities said.

In a statement, Head of School Ben Williams said, “We are cooperating with an investigation by local law enforcement into alleged sexual misconduct by a former employee, who worked at Cate School for six months, and whose employment was terminated in February of 2020.
“Cate School had also alerted Child Protective Services to potential inappropriate conduct by the employee last year. Per the request of the Sheriff’s Department, we are not sharing the suspect’s name in order to protect the integrity of the pending criminal investigation.”
