Authorities say the alleged incident occurred four years ago, when the victim was 16. But she only reported it recently.
Rosario is a para-professional at Manhattan High School in Midtown, a campus the school shares with the Beacon School.
At this point, it is unclear if the victim was a student or if the alleged contact happened inside or outside of school.

Rosario is charged with criminal sex act with a victim less than 17 years of age.
