HAYWARD -- A former campus supervisor at Livermore Valley Charter School who pleaded guilty to sexually abusing two students earlier this year has been sentenced to six years in prison, prosecutors said Wednesday.
Jason Christofer Quero, 31, pleaded guilty on Feb. 10 in Alameda County Superior Court to one count of felony oral copulation of a person under 16 and one count of sexual penetration with a foreign object and was sentenced April 9 in connection to the molestation of two teenage girls, said Teresa Drenick, spokeswoman with the Alameda County District Attorney's Office.
The sentencing hearing took place before Judge Dan Grimmer at the Hayward Hall of Justice, Drenick said.
Before his June 2014 arrest, Quero had worked at the school since 2005. While serving as a campus supervisor, Quero also contracted with the school to provide after-school karate lessons to students under the name Golden State Seibukan Academy.
In the first molestation, prosecutors said Quero sexually abused a 14-year-old female student at the school.
He was arrested June 27, 2014, on suspicion of oral copulation and penetration with a foreign object for abusing that female student between 2010 and 2011, when she was 14.
Quero was released from custody on June 29, 2014 after he posted $400,000 bail, but according to a probable cause affidavit, police received information on July 2 that Quero was being investigated in the molestation of a second victim.
That victim, who was under the age of 16 at the time of the crimes, told police that she had several sexual encounters with Quero -- some during which he made her watch pornography and masturbate in front of him.
A warrant was issued for Quero on July 2, 2014, and he was arrested later that day at his in-laws' Livermore home, the affidavit states.
Quero worked as a substitute campus supervisor at Arroyo Mocho Elementary School in Livermore from 2003 to 2005. Before that, he was a teacher's aide for the Livermore Area Recreation and Parks District from 2001 to 2003, also working at Arroyo Mocho Elementary School.
Quero is due back in court June 5 for a hearing during which the judge will decide how much money he should pay in restitution to the victims and the state.

LIVERMORE (CBS SF) — A former campus supervisor and karate teacher at a charter school in Livermore has been arrested for allegedly sexually abusing a 14-year-old student several years ago, police said Monday.
Jason Quero, a 30-year-old Mountain House man, was arrested Friday on suspicion of penetration with a foreign object and oral copulation with a female student between 2010 and 2011, when she was 14, according to Livermore police.
At the time of the alleged abuse, Quero was employed as a campus supervisor at the Livermore Valley Charter School on Sonoma Avenue, police said.
Quero had worked for the charter school since 2005 but was released from his employment at the school recently after police began investigating him, police spokesman Steve Goard said.
The suspect also contracted with the school to provide karate lessons to students on campus after school hours under the name of Golden State Seibukan Academy, according to police.
Quero previously worked for the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District as a substitute campus supervisor at Arroyo Mocho School from 2003 to 2005 and for the Livermore Area Recreation and Parks District as a teacher’s aide at Arroyo Mocho School’s extended student services program from 2001 to 2003, police said.
Livermore police said they are encouraging parents to talk to their children if they think that they may have had contact with Quero.
They said anyone with information about the case should call them at (925) 294-7531. Those who wish to remain anonymous may do so, police said.
Goard said, “There’s no indication at this time that he had any improper contact with other children but he had so much access to children that we want parents to talk to their children.”
Goard said the alleged victim only came forward a week ago.
He said, “It’s extremely difficult for any child to come forward” and talk to police about being the victim of sexual abuse.
Quero has been released on bail and tentatively is scheduled to be arraigned in Alameda County Superior Court in Pleasanton on July 9, although the District Attorney’s Office hasn’t formally charged him, Goard said.
