A middle school teacher accused of having sex with at least five boys -- some of them students at her school -- was arrested, authorities said.</p>

<p>Police began investigating Allenna Williams Ward, 23, after school officials recovered a note containing inappropriate messages, said Clinton Public Safety Director John Thomas.</p>

<p>Ward, who is married, had sexual encounters with the 14- and 15-year-old boys at various locations, including in the school, at a motel, in a park and behind a restaurant, from December to this month, according to arrest warrants.</p>

<p>Some of the victims were students at Ward's school, Thomas said.</p>

<p>Ward was placed on administrative leave with pay last Thursday, acting district Superintendent Laura Koskela said. A message left for the school's principal was not immediately returned Wednesday.</p>

<p>Ward was charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor and six counts of lewd acts on a minor, according to arrest warrants. She is being held in jail awaiting a bail hearing, police said.

<p>Victims? Let me guess, Mrs. Ward got those teenage boys so scared that they remained silent for 3 months? Bad Mrs. Ward! Let's hope she rots in prison! :And she probably will, as they want to give her a life sentence. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>I wished my Computer teacher was like her.
<em>Sigh</em></p>

4

<p>she's cute.</p>

<p>though that bit of news is a bit bizarre.</p>

5

<p>She was in a position of power; she's the adult. Having sex in school with your students just doesn't fly. If that was a male teacher I bet you'd be saying something completely different pinkcrayons. A little hypocritical if you ask me.</p>

6

<p>Whichever one of those boys left that note in his jeans for his mom to find is probably getting beat-down right now by the rest of them.</p>

7

<p>Yes granted_business, if the teacher was male I would be saying something different.
I remember the eight grade jocks in my school. They would (censored) anything that moves, and treat every remotely "hot" teacher as a sex object. And they didn't improve with age, sadly.</p>

8

<p>that (unfortunately) reminds me of some of my friends</p>

9

<p>Then would you admit it was hypocritical on your part to make those statements?</p>

<p>Male or Female, the ADULT was in the wrong. The ADULT was wrong.</p>

10

<p>Yes, it's biased and hypocritical. Yet it's how I fell, sorry.</p>

11

<p>The teacher deserved it. But then she deserved to be flat-out fired, not put on administrative suspension or whatever.</p>

12

<p>it's ridiculous. As a teacher you have a responsibility to uphold: you are making impressions in young people's minds. They have to be the adults (I know that was a "duh" statement, but you get my point) and understand what is best for his/her students.</p>

13

<p>Those kids are lucky.</p>

14

<p>^ lol. I dont know dude. the teacher wasn't hot at all. Now if it were my chem teacher. WOW</p>

15

<p>Abhi, u posted HERE! I'll tell all ur frens</p>

16

<p>Lol....................</p>

<p>I don't know what you've been taught in Sex Ed, but it's very difficult to rape a male*.</p>

<p>*: [troll] unless you're a member of the clergy. [/troll]</p>

<p>Frame, I hope you are joking.</p>

19

<p>It's rape by legal statute. I hope that pedophile has a nice time in prison!</p>

<p>Only half, and only in context with the "'inappropriate' note" found by authorities.</p>
