Gray was released on personal recognizance, but was ordered not to have any contact with children under 16, to stay away from Easthampton's Mountainview School, to stay away from the alleged victim and their family and to stay in contact with probation officers, according to prosecutors.
Gray is due back in court for a pretrial conference April 22.
