A third-grade Oklahoma teacher who resigned this week after parents accused her of dressing their daughters in lingerie and photographing them at a Christmas party was arrested on Thursday.

Kimberly Crain, 47, of?Shawnee?will face charges of manufacture of child pornography and lewd acts with a child, said District Attorney Richard Smothermon. He said she will be arraigned Friday and that he plans to request $1 million in bail.

Crain had been an elementary teacher for six years in McLoud, Okla.,?about 30 miles east of Oklahoma City, when she allegedly invited third- and fourth-grade girls to her home last month for a pizza party. She is accused of having the girls dress in holiday-themed bras and panties,?then photographing them.

The FBI has seized computers used by Crain?and recovered deleted files from her cell phone, said Smothermon.

A phone call to Crain's attorney was not immediately returned.

McLoud public schools had?placed Crain?on administrative leave before?she resigned Monday.

A group of parents has filed a lawsuit against the teacher,?NBC station KFOR reported.

"I think there are significant civil rights that have been violated for these little girls, privacy issues,"?Joe Vorndran, an attorney for six families, told?KFOR. "The level to which some of these photographs that may arise border on pornography."
