Substitute teacher Symone Greene had sexual encounter with student in classroom on her 1st day
A substitute teacher at a D.C. charter school is facing charges after allegedly having a sexual encounter with a student-- and it was only her first day on the job. Court documents say the teen asked her to perform sex acts equal to the number on his football jersey.
D.C. police say 22-year-old Symone Greene of Ft. Washington, Md. is charged with first-degree sexual abuse of a minor. According to D.C. Superior Court documents dated October 21, Greene was in her first day as a substitute teacher at Options Public Charter School, which is located on E Street NE.
The alleged incident took place on Friday, October 17 at the school. Court documents say the victim, a 17-year-old eleventh grade boy, was working as an office assistant in the classroom where Greene was substituting in an English class. The teen told investigators he flirted with Greene, and gave her his cell phone number.
The boy told investigators he got a text message from Greene the same day, and while he didn't recall the entire conversation that they had via text messages because he had erased them, he did report asking Greene if she was "kinky." The boy said her response was, "I dont tell I show." Later that day, the teen told investigators he engaged in oral sex with Greene in a school classroom, and he recorded the act without her knowledge. The teen told investigators he continued texting Greene through the weekend, and that she told him not to tell anyone what had happened because "it is not right for a student and teacher to have a relationship."
Documents say the teen, who is a football player, showed the video to several teammates and sent it to another friend outside the school. Authorities reviewed the video and video taken from school surveillance cameras to identify the classroom where the alleged act happened, and the teen agreed to text message the suspect again at the request of authorities. The teen saved a clothed picture that Greene sent to him of herself and identified her as the teacher who performed oral sex on him to authorities.
Options Public Charter School executive director Shannon Hodge released the following statement about the incident on Wednesday moing:
“The female substitute teacher was at Options Public Charter School for one day to cover a planned staff teacher absence. The substitute teacher was not an employee of Options Public Charter School.”
"When school administrators leaed of the incident Monday moing, we immediately contacted the Child and Family Services Agency, the Metropolitan Police Department, and the parent of the student. MPD responded immediately and began an investigation into the incident.”
“We are deeply conceed about what happened to one of our scholars. Our goal is to keep our scholars safe and secure. All staff will remain extremely vigilant in maintaining a safe school environment and will continue to implement procedures to ensure the safety and security of our scholars.”
