A complaint filed by the Department of Social Services stated that several female students said they had been touched by Robert B. Adams, principal and founder of Creative Frontiers School in the Sacramento suburb of Citrus Heights.
"On numerous occasions, respondent Adams touched female children's bodies under their shirts and down their pants," the complaint said.
It went on to say that Adams – whom students referred to as "Mr. Bob" – also would "seclude female children under a computer desk and lie down with them on a mat in his office."
Adams could not be reached Tuesday at the school, where five horses roamed a pasture and a large playground was surrounded by red, cottage-like classrooms, or at his home in Folsom, where white garbage bags had been taped to windows on the side of the front door in an apparent attempt to prevent people from looking in.
Shades were closed at the yellow, two-story house with a wraparound front porch.
Police said Adams was the focus of the investigation but had not been arrested.
"I have to point out Mr. Adams is not under arrest and an arrest warrant has not been issued," Citrus Heights police spokesman Jon Kempf said. "Due to the sensitive nature of this investigation, we want to move slowly and cautiously."
Kempf said there were more than 10 children involved but declined to say exactly how many or if they were part of the campus pre-school or elementary school.
