Teacher fired for allowing students to have sex in classroom

The Associated Press is reporting 25-year-old Quentin Wright, a math teacher at The Champion School in Stone Mountain, Georgia was arrested on Tuesday, and charged with four misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

The arrest warrant alleges Wright arranged times with students to have sex in his classroom when it was empty, including supplying them with condoms.

The setup was discovered by the mother of a 14-year-old boy last Tuesday. She discovered text messages between her son and the middle school math teacher. The parent, who asked to remain anonymous, was shocked, and in disbelief. She took her son out of school on Friday and contacted the principal and the police.

She told WSBTV, “I was in a state of disbelief when I read all these messages. Basically, he’s allowing the students to have sex in a storage room in his classroom.” Wright was fired from his job because of the allegations and was arrested.

The exchanges between the teacher and the woman’s son revealed the permission he was given to have sex with a girl he was bringing into the classroom storage closet. The mother said, “He told my son you can have it from 7:30 to like 8:30. Did you tell the girl what’s going to happen? That she cannot tell anybody? Basically don’t tell anyone I’m allowing you to use my room.”

Wright’s mother does not believe the allegations against her son, saying he loved his students and would never do anything to harm them. She told WGCL TV, “They’re trying to ruin his career as an educator. I am very hurt and very upset that this whole thing has come out. He said, ‘Mom, there is no way, no way I would do anything like that.’ He is very upset about it, he’s very upset because he cared a lot.”
