Frank Wailits, a teacher at The Learning Tree day care in Elgin, was charged with abusing at least two students, Kane County prosecutors said.
Some parents ABC7 spoke with said they trust the people who work at the day care, while others said the allegations make them sick.Parents arrived Wednesday morning at The Learning Tree Elgin-West day care to drop off their children after learning a teacher who worked there for many years is being accused of sexually abusing two students.
"Absolutely I have my own fears on what's happened but I've known these people for a long time because my elder one went to the same day care and I trust the people at least I know of," parent Sridhar Makina said."I was so disgusted," said one parent whose child goes to the center. "I was shaky." Prosecutors have not released any further details, but are concerned there could be more victims and officials said the investigation remains active. Prosecutors ask anyone with information about Walaitis to contact the Kane County Child Advocacy center, which is conducting the investigation with the help of Elgin police.
