Meanwhile, the school district has placed the teacher on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
Parents and community members have expressed shock and concern, with many demanding answers and questioning how the alleged misconduct could have gone unnoticed.
“These are serious allegations, and we are cooperating fully with law enforcement to ensure a thorough investigation,” a school district spokesperson stated.
The teacher’s colleagues described her as a respected and dedicated educator with no prior disciplinary record.
“She’s always been a professional and caring teacher,” said one co-worker. “This just doesn’t add up.” Legal experts say the case will likely hinge on the credibility of the student’s testimony and the interpretation of physical evidence.
