Prosecutors said the girls, one aged 16 and the other 17, would be called out of class up to twice a week to meet with the 31 year old married father.
The two alleged victims came forward when one found out about the other.
Lipscomb, a father of three, pleaded not guilty when he appeared before Superior Court judge Sergio Armijo in Pierce County, Washington.
He was arrested two weeks ago after officials at Tacoma Stadium High School heard about the alleged sex offenses.
One of the girls, now aged 17, told police the relationship with Liscomb lasted for a year from June 2010 to June 2011.
The girl said she gave Lipscomb nearly $300 cash over the course of their relationship because she ‘thought he would like her more,’ court records show.
She told detectives Lipscomb also was having sex with another girl.
That girl told police she had sex one time with Lipscomb in the school security office in December.
She also claimed Lipscomb told them to lie about their sexual relationship.
The Tacoma School district put Lipscomb on paid administrative leave when the allegations first surfaced.
‘These are individuals who are put into positions where we have a lot of trust in them to keep our children safe and certainly whenever there’s anything that comes up where there’s a question as to whether that trust has been broken, it’s certainly something the district is concerned about,” said Shannon McMinimee, said a lawyer for the school district.
Lipscomb is being held in lieu $50,000 bail.
