Former MCPS Middle School Teacher Charged With Sexual Abuse of a Student
written by Patrick Herron
November 7, 2023

Per MCPD:

former Montgomery County teacher has been arrested and charged with multiple sexual offenses for engaging in sexual acts with a minor. Detectives believe there may be additional victims.

On Thursday, October 5, 2023, the Montgomery County Department of Police – Special Victims Investigations Division (SVID) initiated an investigation into allegations of sexual abuse by an adult male victim. The victim alleges that he had engaged in sexual acts with 31-year-old Melissa Marie Curtis of Upper Marlboro, when he was a minor.


The alleged abuse began in 2015 when Curtis was 22-years-old. The incidents continued for several months while the victim was a student at Montgomery Village Middle School, and Curtis was a teacher at the same school. All of the incidents took place within Montgomery County.


A warrant for Melissa Curtis’s arrest was obtained on Tuesday, October 31, charging her with sexual abuse of a minor and multiple counts of third and fourth-degree sexual offenses.

Curtis had been a teacher for approximately two years in Montgomery County and taught at Lakelands Park Middle School as well.

SVID detectives suspect that there may be additional victims and would like to speak with them. Detectives encourage potential victims to call 240-773-5400.

Curtis turned herself in on Tuesday, November 7, and is currently awaiting a bond hearing.

So many of these cases with MCPS staff sexually abusing students. It would be worthwhile looking into if complaints were ignored prior to the arrest.

I swear you all are nothing but low class racist. A white woman sexually assaulted a little boy and you still bring up Beidleman who allegedly harassed an adult woman who should have had sense enough to speak up years ago but she didn’t because it was an affair gone wrong.

Joel, you can keep beating that dead horse but nothing changes the fact that you were the supervisor. You knew you were not permitted to have sex with subordinates. You can keep victim blaming but none of that changes what you did.

A grown woman sits in a school for years being harassed and doesn’t say anything? I don’t think so….

You are sick and your attempt at normalizing an adult woman sleeping with a middle schooler is no doubt your twisted way of coping with your own childhood traumas. Seek therapy. This is not normal.

I don't know about the adult. But I know if you ask 100 middle school 8th grade boys at least 90 would fool around with hot teacher if you know you wont be caught. It's a classic male fantasy.

There are lots of teenage girls who will tell you they developed crushes on their male teachers too, particularly if those teachers were under 30 and conventionally handsome.

And yet, somehow, I bet you won’t call it “a classic female fantasy” and waste bandwidth and data trying normalize sexual relations between a teacher and their student.

Your awfulness is showing. Do something different.

Classic trope:

All dogs of a different canine. When will the madness end? Bieldlemann has the county by the proverbial balls and no one is willing to call a "spade a spade". Shame on you MoCo

All of this happened before Dr. McKnight was the superintendent so I don’t know why anyone is even talking about it.

I’ve heard a variation of this comment a million times over the years, a man thinking that they would have been glad for this to happen to them as teenagers, but you are only speculating that you would have liked it. You don’t know what you would have felt, because it didn’t happen to you. You have no idea what it would have been like, or the aftermath it might have had later in your life.
