The Member, a teacher, pled no contest to allegations of professional misconduct arising from inappropriate Facebook and text message communications with students, taking a student off school property for lunch without permission, and misleading Board officials about his conduct.
The Discipline Committee found the Member guilty of professional misconduct.
Accepting a joint submission on penalty, the Committee ordered a reprimand, a two-month suspension, and the completion of a course on professional boundaries.
The Committee also ordered the publication of the Member's name in the College's official publication, rejecting the Member's argument for privacy.
