Teacher Cant Stop Smiling After Being Accused Of Having Sexual Relations With Teen
Fowlkes taught anatomy and physiology at the school, according to her school district, which announced her suspension in a statement on Monday. The school had employed her since 2014, it added.
The decision to suspend her followed school administrators on Friday receiving a report about allegations of her having relations with the teen in person and via electronic messages. Local authorities, including Child Protective Services, were promptly contacted, the district said.

Back when we thought Republican criminals could go to jail
regardless of the ages, any adult teacher should know this is wrong
The audacity of these people. So smug 
I think it's safe to assume this doesn't go to trial. Double standard sure, but that's life.
Tolerating a double-standard is merely enabling that same double-standard. But no worries... a lazy mind values bias more than rational thought.
That's life, as well.
In this case there are TWO (duo) mainstream heteronormative genders and the basic behavioral and sexual characteristics existing on the bell curve for them. There are biological differences in most cases and, by definition, psychological as well.
You can continue to see the world in a way where everybody is a gelatinous gray blob, but I'll live in reality.
It would be understandable if a woman you don't consider "very pretty" did the same thing?
Looks like she loves attention and to flaunt herself. I have little doubt that she did this because she felt entitled to forbidden pleasure, and now that she got caught she thinks the best strategy is to just smile and laugh about it. Affluenza in a nutshell.
like something out of a horror movie
Real life is not always like some porn fantasy. You have no idea what someone else has experienced. It may not be as great as you imagine.
...their students? 
Christ on a trailer hitch, what a weird and ignorant thread.
Regardless of the difference in ages, regardless of whether or not the student is or is not "of age," there is a profound difference in status and yes, power. Teachers have the power of life and death, so to speak, over their students' transcripts -- whether they can take the next course in the curriculum, whether they can be accepted to the college of their choice, whether a future employer will look on them with favor.
When my husband was still teaching at the local college, a young lady came into his office wearing a low cut top, leaned over his desk and said, "I'd do anything for an A." Really, honey? And have him get fired in disgrace? He told her to open her textbook and study.
Yes, college-level teachers, with their over-18 and over-21 students, can lose their careers. The rule is -- never date, much less have sex with, someone who is actually in your class at the time. It is a helluva conflict of interest. Wait until all the grades are in. That's what my brother did when he was a TA, and fell hard for the young woman with the waist-length blond hair. Only when she was well out of his class did he date her and court her.
High school students are of an age to be socially naive, impressionable, and vulnerable. Boys may be horny, but that still applies to them. There have been a couple of cases in the last 15 years or so of predatory teachers who seduced a student and got pregnant accidentally on purpose. You guys who snicker at how "lucky" the boy in the OP was, think on that.
She needs to lose her license to teach K-12 kids.
