Why Would A Teacher Send Selfies To Her Student? Is She That Immature? That Sexually Starved? Or Is This An Example Of A Country In Decline?

Teachers Nude Selfie Exposed SHOCKING Secret & Destroyed Her Career

A Texas teacher has found herself in hot water after a nude selfie was discovered by administrators, exposing a secret she had been keeping for quite some time.

Twenty-four-year-old Ashley Zehnder was arrested for having an inappropriate relationship with a student after a nude selfie she sent to him was found circulating around the school, according to the New York Daily News.

The Pasadena High School teacher, who doubled as a cheerleading coach, had been having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student, who was also a member of the cheerleading squad, since May. She admitted to sending him the photo after an investigation into her complaints about it uncovered the illicit affair.

“She admitted to sending the nude photo to the student, knowing in fact that he was a student, and that they had sex,” assistant district attorney Nick Socias said.

Zehnder resigned from her position on Oct. 9 after being employed by the school since August 2013.

“It’s terribly unfortunate whenever a teacher violates trust of a student like that,” Pasadena school spokesperson Renea Ivy said. “I think it makes it much harder for the other teachers who truly care about their obligation as an educator.”

Some of the students who saw the picture were disgusted with the teacher’s actions, saying she acted extremely unprofessional.

“When I heard about it, it was on Twitter, like on a social media so everything kind of like went around,” said student Marlene Aquilar. “Why would a teacher do that? It’s like you’re supposed to be professional and imagine like going to school that day and having everybody seeing like your body.”

Zendher posted the $10,000 bond and now awaits a court date.

It’s amazing that even after all the negative consequences these teacher’s receive for having relationships with students, some still believe it to be worth the risk.
