The middle school teacher at Northwest Academy of Health Sciences is accused of engaging in sex acts with a 13-year-old girl.

BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD — A Baltimore County middle school teacher is being held without bail after police said he sexually abused a 13-year-old girl during school hours.
Chadwick F. Zamarron, 35, of the 4300 block of Breeders Cup Court in Randallstown, is a teacher at Northwest Academy of Health Sciences.
Police allege Zamarron became physically involved with the teen in February and March, engaging in kissing and sex acts in his classroom and office at the school in the 4600 block of Old Court Road. At times, officials said he wrote hall passes so she could miss class.

The investigation into Zamarron's relationship with the student began last week after the student told her mother that she performed a sex act on the teacher, according to police.
The girl told a social worker in a follow-up interview that she sent sexual messages to Zamarron on social media in January, which progressed into verbal, sexual and electronic communication during school hours, police reported.
