The person arrested was not a teacher, but rather a study hall
monitor. With that said, it's obvious that Loudoun has many
issues, but at least they are out in the open. I know of
several school districts that have had multiple issues that were
kept quiet. One teacher in my district married a former student
just 6 months after she graduated. The teacher was 25 years her
senior. Several accusations of nepotism in the district to our
west. The problem is that many of these are talked about behind
closed doors and not out in the open. I'd rather have open
justice than hush-hush injustice.
