Another teacher in Eastern Carolina is accused of having sex with a former student.
Sampson County deputies have charged Jeannie Hodges with statutory rape, sexual offense with a student and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Deputies say the 39-year-old Hodges was carrying on an affair with the 15-year-old boy. Investigators say they received a complaint two weeks ago that Hodges had the affair with the student while she was a teacher.
Investigators say the 15 year-old had stayed overnight at Hodges' home on multiple occasions and the woman was very open about her relationship with the student.
Hodges taught at Hobbton Middle School, and investigators say the relationship started toward the end of the school year. Hodges is no longer employed by the school system.
She is in the Sampson County jail on a $50,000 bond.

As a teacher, I am sick of hearing about other teachers facing drug charges or sleeping with their students. I want to hear about those teachers who take their summer vacation to work with students in summer school or provide extra programs to students who need them throughout the year. Those teachers that do bad things never really wanted to be teachers, I guess; they are making it bad for the rest of us who bust our backside trying to make a difference.

You can certainly tell the men from the women on this blog. Most of the men don't see the problem. All of the women are thinking, "That teacher better be glad that wasn't my son". LOL Guys ready to pat him on the back.

Not even talking about sex outside of marriage is SIN! But parents should be able to send their children to school and feel safe that the adults there are moral enough to not be having sex with children. This is the result of not having moral laws to govern us; but then, God was kicked out of public school years ago. And then we wonder why we have these type of things happening. And sadly, it is becoming more and more the norm. I am so thankful for the option to home school. This is a two fold option. One- to keep my children safe from these sorts of predators whether they be peers or teachers. Two- to instill that moral law in my children so they know what is right from what is wrong.
