Deputies say teacher who skipped class went to motel to work as prostitute Wednesday, February 11, 2009 11:38 AM By Holly Zachariah THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
BELLEFONTAINE, Ohio -- It was a delicate conversation, to be sure: the school principal telling a class of fourth-graders this morning that their teacher is absent because she was arrested yesterday at the local Super 8 Motel.
There was little, if any, discussion about how 35-year-old Amber Carter had apparently gone to the hotel to be paid for sex. Carter had taken a half-day of sick leave yesterday, said Bellefontaine City Schools Superintendent Larry Anderson.
Not long after she left the school, sheriff's deputies, following a tip, arrested Carter at 12:05 p.m. in the hotel parking lot.
She was charged with prostitution, a third-degree misdemeanor, and unauthorized use of property, a felony. Anderson said the felony charge stems from the fact that she may have used her school computer to set up inappropriate meetings.
The school district is cooperating in the investigation, he said. Anderson placed Carter on paid administrative leave last night.
Carter was processed at the Logan County Jail and then released.
A substitute assumed her class at Western Intermediate School today, and the guidance counselor and the principal met with the students to answer any questions they might have had.
"It's just a bad situation," Anderson said. "It's not our place to tell them too much, but we figured the students might have heard rumors and would have some questions."
A letter will go home to parents tonight.
Carter has taught in the Logan County district for 13 years and hasn't had a single disciplinary problem, he said. She's been a popular teacher.
No one answered the phone at Carter's Bellefontaine home this morning.
Logan County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Randy Dodds said he couldn't provide any more details on the case.

How about instead just telling her Fourth Grade class that their teacher resigned her job for personal reasons, and would have a new teacher soon. If they read about her in the paper, their parents can explain.

A lot of disturbing trends when it comes to teachers ... and being a part time hooker is certainly a recurring theme.

So what’s the problem? She used her authorized sick leave. She is just a struggling person trying to add to her income and make a few guys happy.
