CLINTON, South Carolina (AP) -- A middle school teacher accused of having sex with at least five boys -- some of them students at her school -- was arrested, authorities said.
Police began investigating Allenna Williams Ward, 23, after school officials recovered a note containing inappropriate messages, said Clinton Public Safety Director John Thomas.
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.
Where were all these teachers when I was a kid?

The 23 year old is a freakin' teacher.
This woman is in a position of authority and trust, and she should bloody well know better than to be offering herself up to her students.
But these are still at least adolescent boys. That doesn't make it right, but I haven't seen anything showing that women are going after prepubescents or younger of either gender, so I'm rather certain they're safe.

I agree. I used to work for a school. Teachers, in most cases would be left alone with the students. Most of the parents, they are usually concern about the teachers. In my experience, most of the parents of the children below ten years old, for some reasons, they usually prefer a female over a male teacher.
Now, with this incident, if this still increase, this kind of preference for teacher’s gender may soon lose its popularity.
