Sorry to derail the fine commentary, but I just have to say that as someone who just finished two years of getting his high school teaching certificate (in Connecticut ... it ain't easy), I can't believe that someone would throw their entire administrative career away just for the wanton pleasure of one or a couple of teenagers. Obviously this woman was a teacher for a number of years before she became an assistant principal, but a stupid decision like this takes her (I'm guessing, based on her age) decades of education and flushes it down the toilet.

It just boggles my mind. I don't understand how someone could do that. Maybe she got away with it for years, I don't know. I student taught at a small, rural high school, and sure there were plenty of girls that made you do a(n internal) double-take. But to throw away a career and possibly go to jail? Are you kidding? This is akin to spending 10 years and hundreds of thousands of dollars to become a doctor, and then getting arrested for stealing meds to sell out of his home (which happened at the hospital where my mom worked).

I'm reading the New Yorker piece on the alleged sexual abuse at Horace Mann in New York. It's quite interesting reading how manipulative some of these teachers were, who were considered brilliant and looked up to by students and faculty alike.

Sorry. Back to putting her on a scale. I just am in wonderment about the whole thing.

My ex-wife was a high school teacher. There were a couple of times that I felt she was getting too friendly with her students. Not physically involved, but just overly interested in their lives. Mostly friends' kids, or more friends of friends' kids. I told her it wouldn't take much for one of them to get mad and make her life hell.

Her friend that taught with her was even worse and I suspect there might have been some sort of involvement at one point. Knowing her personal life, it was easy to see where she might be enamored with the idea of the stud basketball player being interested in her. She wasn't popular in high school and married a nice, but below average guy. Lust and desire can do crazy things, my friend, and it can cloud your judgment.

I don't know how involved is "too involved," but I find it's important to know your students because if they see you're interested in them, they'll show an interest in you. Because I student taught in one of the schools we cover at the paper, I was able to chat with the athletes about his or her sport, and I found they appreciated that I saw they had a good volleyball or soccer game, or whatever. Even the student who was a pain in the ass, we went to the same elementary school (albeit 25 years apart). So I was able to connect with him that way, talking about our town, and he became a better student with me.

Maybe you have to be in a different life situation, I don't know. Failing relationship, death in the family, whatever. But I just can't fathom why you would risk losing your job and going to jail by going after a high school student. Go to the bar or go online if you want to shack up. Buy something at a sex store. Buy a pet if you're looking for affection.

And the other thing ... OF COURSE this will get your name in the papers, providing fodder for many (us, obviously). Why subject yourself to derision that will stay with you for years?
