Adams, 63, was arrested in September 2011. In March 2013, Superior Court Judge Kevin J. McCormick ordered him to face trial on charges that he methodically and routinely molested young girls at the private school dating back to 1996.

He is charged with six felony counts of lewd and lascivious behavior with a child younger than 14 and a misdemeanor count of annoying or molesting a child younger than 18.

Adams has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
