Most of my teachers.

A 24-year-old former substitute teacher from Iowa who was arrested in July after admitting to a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student says he had swept her off her feet with love notes scribbled on Post-Its.
Mary Beth Haglin, of Cedar Rapids, has been charged with misdemeanor sexual exploitation by a school employee in connection to her six-month tryst with a male student at Washington High School.
On Wednesday, Haglin pleaded not guilty to the charge in writing, and her trial date has been set for November 14. If convicted, she could face up to two years in prison and be required to register as a sex offender for 10 years.
Haglin was hired as a substitute teacher in January and was terminated in May at the conclusion of an internal investigation by school administrators. An earlier probe conducted in February had failed to prove any wrongdoing on Haglin’s part.
Both investigations have since been labelled as ‘ineffective’ by the school district and led to the resignations of three high-ranking officials, reported The Gazette.
It is believed that Haglin and the victim had been in a sexual relationship for almost the entire duration of her tenure at Washington High School.
Speaking to Inside Edition this week, the 24-year-old woman apologized for the hurt she has caused, but claimed that it was her underage lover who seduced her.
‘He would come into my classroom, grab a Post-It, write something and stick it to my desk on his way out,’ she said. One note read, ‘I love you so much, my empress.’

I wish they made post-it notes when Miss Rathvon was my teacher.
My brother taught right out of college and was unnerved a couple of times when he went home to his apartment to find his roommate had a party with some of his students there.
He joined the Air Force soon after. When he retired early on the force reduction program as a Major he went back to teaching and became a principal and college administrator.
Now he has two retirement checks and great wisdom.

When a district is hiring teachers they need to hire people who are clear that it is a felony to have sex with their students. NO MATTER WHAT. Even if her top is low or his package is big.
What is hard to understand about YOU WILL DO JAIL TIME IF YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR STUDENTS?
So true my FRiend. factor in the sexting aspect and he becomes a living legend...
They’re so pampered and freed from accountability that they probably never will be. See it all the time. (graduated from HS in 54, off to Syracuse . . . Korean veterans on the GI Bill to compete with, WWII veteran profs)
Where the heck were teachers like this when I was 17; dang!
Yep. I’ve seen it time and again in local elections. The teacher’s union makes it fairly obvious who they want on a school board. Look for multiple names on signs. They cross file meaning that 15% to 20% of the registered voters in the precinct might turn out on a lovely May day in an odd year election. A good share of those will be union hacks and the like, so come November, guess which choices there will be on the ballot?
Not guilty. And by that I mean both that she’s fairly attractive and it’s utterly ridiculous she was arrested for sex with a 17 year old. There are a lot of real crimes in Cedar Rapids for the cops to concern themselves with. The age of consent in Iowa is 16. And she’s a only 24, probably barely more mature than him. Let’s not forgot our illustrious Newt Gingrich.
What 17 year old boy doesn’t want to do their hot teacher? The ones that are gay, that’s it.
Kid called her “my Empress”, he has issues.
I hate that almost as much as the “crucially important issue on the ballot in an off-year primary election in a county with a 5:1 Democrat registration advantage, and few Republicans even running on the ballot”.
Carnegie Library raised my property tax a couple of years ago with that one!
Somewhere there’s a happy Smurf.
On the other hand.....a 17 year old kid was familiar with the word Empress...
Yeah, she’s nuts.
“Most of mine.”

Wow, even tougher for you.
Though I did have an unrequited schoolboy crush on my fifth grade teacher, she was hot in a bookwormish kinda way.

My French teacher was kinda hot. Twenty-something, red hair. The funky free-spirited chick that guys always went for in 70’s movies.
Not Guilty
Note to self: post-its as a seduction technique.
