Gary Schleimer, 60, of Nolensville, a former Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools (MNPS) drama teacher, was arrested last night by Nolensville Police officers in Williamson County. The arrest follows a 2023 grand jury indictment for aggravated sexual battery of a minor stemming from an incident at H.G. Hill Middle School.
Schleimer is accused of inappropriately touching a female student’s chest from behind, above her clothing, while alone with her in a classroom. The incident was later reported to the school principal.
Prior to the report being made in the fall of 2022, Schleimer had not been selected for rehire by MNPS for that upcoming school year.
A Criminal Court judge set Schleimer’s bond at $100,000.
