Shiloh High School teacher of the year, Keenon Aampay Hall, has resigned from her post at the school in Snellville, Georgia after allegations arose that she seduced a student.

Hall, 29, was an English teacher and cheerleading coach at the school for six years prior to her resignation- a move that her parents told the Atlanta Journal Constitution came due to medical reasons and not the allegations of the unnamed 17-year-old football player. Hall is accused of lowering the student’s grade because he refused to have a baby with her:

“We entered the room … then she gave me some Vodka and ask me do I enjoy drinking?” he wrote. “I told her lies about being a good drinker, but honeslty after one drink I was done. She began feeling my man parts and we had sex.”

The teen also told administrators that Hall gave him cash, a cell phone and had sex with him in a classroom, an encounter the teacher denies. The football player said the teacher eventually turned on him because he didn’t want to get too serious. ”What made Kennon Hall mad at is the fact that I would not give her a baby.”

No charges have yet been brought against Hall, and Gwinnett County officials are investigating the student’s allegations.

37-year-old Canandaigua Academy teacher Marla Gurecki-Haskins surrendered to police yesterday in the small Western New York town of Canandaigua on charges related to sexual conduct involving three male students.

Gurecki-Haskins, who has been teaching for fifteen years, pleaded not guilty to one felony count of disseminating indecent material to a minor, and three misdemeanor counts of official misconduct and endangering the welfare of a child. The teacher is on leave from Canandaigua Academy and among other charges, stands accused of performing oral sex on a student in a classroom during school hours.

Gurecki-Haskins is also accused of using cell phones for “sexting” with students and engaging other forms of “electronic communication” during the incidents. A local police representative encouraged parents to speak to children about racy “electronic communications.”

“Parents need to be very vigilant with e-mail communication, what websites their children are going to, and their phones. I don’t know how far-reaching this incident was. Hopefully no other students were affected, but certainly as a parent I would sit down with my child and have a candid conversation,” says Canandaigua Police Chief Jon Welch.

Police say they were unable to charge Gurecki-Haskins for rape or “serious sex crimes” because the age of consent in New York is 17.

Today’s report of inappropriate teacher/student relations comes out of Spring, Texas.

Science teacher Deanna Higgins remains on administrative leave since January of 2009, due to allegations of inappropriate sexual relations with a student. Higgins was hired by the Spring School District in January 2008, and taught at Spring Independent High School.

Principal Donna Ullrich sent parents a letter explaining the suspensions, indicating that the school is pursuing two charges against Higgins. Higgins was charged Monday on one count of sexual assault of a child and one count of having an improper relationship between an educator and a student. Both are felonies.

Another teacher is also on administrative leave and under investigation for a separate incident. . Full text of the letter, below:

As part of our continuing effort to keep you informed and involved in your child’s education at Spring High School, I’m writing to share information about an alleged improper relationship between Spring High School science teacher Deanna Higgins and a Spring High School student.

The Spring ISD Police Department has completed a thorough investigation of the allegation and submitted the results of that investigation to the Harris County District Attorney’s office. The DA’s office accepted two charges on Monday, Oct 12: one for an improper relationship between an educator and a student, and one for sexual assault of a child. Both charges are second-degree felonies.

The Spring High School administration and Spring ISD Police Department immediately began investigating the allegation after receiving a report from a third party. The teacher was placed on administrative leave, which is a routine procedure when an allegation of this nature is made. Higgins has been a science teacher at Spring High School since January 2008.

I want to assure you that the safety of our students is of the highest importance at Spring High School. The criminal history and references of job applicants are routinely checked before they are hired. The administration at Spring High School takes every allegation seriously and will conduct a thorough investigation and expose inappropriate behavior when necessary. Inappropriate behavior with our students will never be tolerated or overlooked.

You may have heard rumors that another Spring High School teacher has been placed on administrative leave. It is true that a second teacher is on administrative leave while an investigation into a separate issue is in progress. I am not able to share details about this investigation until it has been completed.

Please speak to your children and remind them to always report to you or other proper officials any time they feel threatened or compromised by anyone. We have numerous systems in place for reporting inappropriate activity. Students may contact any Spring High School administrator or counselor, Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.Crime-Stoppers.org and the Spring ISD Police Department at 281-893-7473. In addition we are in the process of implementing the anonymous, online communication system for students called “Talk About It.”

If you have any concerns or questions please contact me at (redacted.)

Melissa Arnett, a former special education teacher at Bourbon County High School, has been accused of having sex with one of her male students.

Arnett, 33, faces one charge of sex abuse of a minor for allegedly having sex at least 5 times with one of her students over a 2 month period. Arnett was booked into custody in Lexington, Kentucky and released July 14 on a $5,000 bond.

The student’s mother became suspicious of her son’t whereabouts and behaviour and went to authorities back in early June. When Melissa Arnett was confronted about the allegations, she broke down and confessed that she had indeed been involved in a sexual relationship with the male student. She then immediately resigned her teaching position and turned herself in to police.

Police are saying that Arnett sometimes drove the student across county lines where laws are more lenient and they would have sex. But the charge stems from her confession that she did have sex at least once while in Bourbon County.

The Supreme Court of Georgia has ruled that teachers can legally have sex with their students as long as those students are 16 or older, which is the minimum age of consent in the state.

“Generally speaking, it is not a crime in Georgia to have physical sexual contact with a willing participant who is 16 years of age or older.”

The ruling came about during an appeal of the conviction in the case of Melissa Lee Chase, a 30 year old teacher who was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2007 for the sexual assault of a 16 year old girl at her school.

Now that the ruling has been made, pundits are expecting a flurry of appeals to other such cases in the state where teachers had sex with their students.
