Missing Teacher Found With Student
By Wyatt Earp | February 25, 2009
Lovely. Just lovely. Will someone please answer these two questions for me?
1. What the Hell has become of our education system, and why are teachers – a lot of them female – starting romantic relationships with their students?
2. Where the Hell were these teachers when I was in high school? Yeah, Ms. Dwyer from my alma mater, I am looking at you!
A 24-year-old teacher from Holyoke, Massachusetts, is in custody after allegedly leaving town with a 15-year-old student, city officials said Tuesday.
I realize what the student saw in the teacher – she is kinda cute – but what does a woman her age see in a 15-year old kid?
Lisa Lavoie and the male student were found in Morgantown, West Virginia, Monday night after apparently being together for a week, Holyoke Mayor Michael Sullivan said.
Well, if they wanted to spend a month together, the obvious choice is to spend a week in West Virginia. Heh.
Investigators have charged Lavoie with enticement of a child.
On February 13, the student’s parents informed school officials of a possible relationship between the teacher and their son. That was late on a Friday afternoon, and when officials went to the school to question Lavoie, she was gone for the day. The next week was a vacation week for the school. (H/T – CNN)
How immature must this broad be? Seriously. The chick needs help, and she needs it right quick.

I don’t get it, either, Wyatt. I chose the high school level because I felt like I could be a positive impact…to right the wrongs I experienced. There is a level of unspoken trust between the students and teachers. I don’t understand why folks break that trust.
Not to harp on psychology, though: In my child psych. course I learned that if someone is going to be a pervert when it comes to kids, that person will be attracted to occupations that interact with kids. I don’t know if it is purposeful or if even that perverted nature can out-of-nowhere pop up. We rarely, if ever, hear of what these folks were like aside from what got them into the news.
It’s all just creepy and weird.

We have a local volleyball coach that was texting one of his players up to 16 times a day. No one really noticed except the whole team. The guy claims he was just being supportive. Oh yeah, real sharp. Put these people away. MUD

Sex education in school has come a long way (snark). All we got was a stupid film. Only advantage was no one got STD’s from watching a film.

I had eight years of being taught by nuns, and four more with priests. This is so totally outside my experience, it’s a sin and a shame.

I guess these are the ones that have moved on from working at the mall.

RT – Agreed. I know a lot of people go into coaching for that reason, too. It soils the entire profession, and we always have to attend child abuse courses every school year.
MUD – Especially because you can track text messages. What a dumbass.
Randal – Hey, there’s something to be said for a dirty, filthy whore. And she has to look better when she’s not getting her mug shot taken.
Captain – Oh, like you wouldn’t bang her. You’re Mr. Selective now?
Mike47 – They’re taking a more “hands-on” approach.
Lergnom – Me, too. I had a few lay teachers – Heh, heh – in high school, but not too many to write home about.
Doghouse – She must have been the pretzel girl or something.

When I was in school my youngest female teacher was 60.
