When a teacher is convicted of sexual misconduct involving a student, society views it as an abuse of trust, an exploitation of power, and harm to a vulnerable individual. If you are an educator who is accused of a student-teacher relationship that includes sexual contact, you face immediate suspension of your state teaching certificate and an immediate suspension or termination of your position as a teacher. If convicted, you will face harsh legal sanctions, will be required by law to register as a sex offender for the remainder of your life, and will no longer be able to hold a job as an educator.

Presumption of Innocence
Educators are the most vulnerable professionals to face false misconduct allegations involving a student out of all licensed persons. A student can often react to low grades or anger about being disciplined. Or, they may be the victim of sexual abuse by an adult outside of school. While accusations of sex crimes are serious matters, it is essential to uphold the principle of innocence until proven guilty.
