Teacher Accused Of Improper Relationship With Student: Educator Asks To Take Student To Prom
Having been a teacher, I think I can speak to the temptations of young teachers surroundered by even-younger attractive women. Hey, things happen, right? Even so, here’s a piece of advice for those of you young teachers who might find yourselves thinking with the wrong head: IF YOU MUST SLEEP WITH ONE OF YOUR STUDENTS, IT’S GENERALLY NOT A GOOD IDEA TO ASK YOUR PRINCIPAL IF YOU CAN TAKE HER TO THE PROM. Capice??
WTF??? Yes, no matter how much you might think otherwise, I just cannot make this stuff up.
I’ve done the “teacher boinks student” theme to death, so I promised myself that I wouldn’t revisit it until and unless a DUMB@$$ truly stepped up and displayed a degree of originality and panacne. Well, say hello to Sean Eckman. If creativity is a quality we should be applauding in sex offenders, then Eckman deserves…well, I’m not quite certain exactly what he deserves, but I have a feeling he’s going to have a few years as a guest of the Great State of Texas to consider the possibilities.
PASADENA, Texas — A city of South Houston teacher was placed on administrative leave, accused of having an improper relationship with a student, KPRC Local 2 reported Monday.
Officials at South Houston High School said they began asking questions after the English teacher, Sean Eckman, 29, asked his principal if he could take a 17-year-old student to prom.
“He asked for permission to take her to the prom. He said he was a family friend and that the parents had agreed that it would be OK,” said Kirk Lewis, the Pasadena Independent School District superintendent.
An investigation began.
“The culmination of those investigations led us to believe he had engaged in a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student,” Lewis said.
Police filed charges of inappropriate behavior between an educator and a student.
Really? Any your first clue was…?
