Texas guidance counselor Shannon Hathaway, 33, was caught in bed with a 17-year-old former student and that’s frowned upon in 2018. But, you know, sometimes kids just need a little extra attention. The mom of the student is the one who walked in on them. Gotta put a sock on the door, kid.
The boy had been a student at Harwood Junior High School the previous year. Hathaway was charged with having an improper relationship between educator and student.
Bedford police put out the following statement on the matter:
A male student who was a student at Harwood Jr high School the previous school year had allegedly been involved in a physical relationship with Hathaway, 33 years of age, who was a school counselor at Harwood Junior High School.
The school placed her on paid leave back in May when the allegations first arose. She resigned from her job before turning herself in last week.
This would not have been an issue if she was a sex ed teacher.
