Court records revealed that the Oak Park teacher has been accused of having sexual encounters with the student, with most of these instances reportedly occurring within school grounds.
A former Kansas City, Miss. high school teacher and coach is currently under investigation for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a student while being employed by the school.
According to a search warrant filed during the investigation viewed by KCTV, a student reported the relationship to a teacher in December of 2021. The teacher told an administrator, who subsequently informed law enforcement of the situation.
"KCTV5 News is not naming the teacher because he is not currently charged," KCTV reported. The unnamed teacher worked for the school district from August 2016 through January 2022 as a science teacher, track coach and assistant football coach
A search warrant had been granted to search school district-issued electronics held by the teacher, with an additional search warrant application being filed to search a Snapchat account for its content.
