Last school year, a few clark county teachers innappropriate relationships with students. And some of those relationships. Started after teachers and students became a little too close through texting or social media. Fox5s adam herbets shows us what the district says now about communications between its staff and kids. Some of the people i talked to said when they turn on the news. It can be depressing to see all of the stories about teachers getting arrested in cases like these. The School District says it doesnt always start online. But when it does, there isnt anyone monitoring. Jason lofthouse over the past 11. 5 months not a day has gone by that i dont ask myself why i made those choices this man used to be known as just one of the hundreds of teachers in the Clark County School district. Now in the eyes of the law he is a pervert. A pedophile. Who had sex with at least one student on campus. And in a hotel room. It gets worse every time you turn on and watch the news. We have been asking the district what they have the problem for years especially when it comes to what their teachers are doing online. Every time we ask, we always seem to get the same answer. They dont have a social media policy, but theyre working on it. Right now the children have absolutely free range. This mother says maybe shes just old school but she thinks its embarrassing. Rosemarie macklin were paying taxes to make sure these teachers are being policed. They know what theyre doing. They all have background checks and at the same time our children need to be protected at all times. I think as a nosy parent you know if its legitimate or not. Jodi martinson whose daughter already graduated from high school said she sees where the School District is coming from. J odi martinson it would be hard to make a policy. I could agree with that, but its such a gray area. She thinks, in some cases, there might be good reasons to talk a teacher online. And thats why parents need to be the ones keeping their kids in check. It always falls on mom and dad. Always. Thats where it starts. Thats where the kids learn what they learn. Not at all. No facebook. No twitter. No instagram. Teachers have to know their place, and its in the classroom. Not to be socializing with them. The school if and when they do hammer out a policy, they still want to make it possible for students to talk to teachers online. So they can help out with things like homework. As for this school year they say they will continue to just talk to teachers informally, reminding them to be appropriate. Two las vegas le doing their part to help fight childhood cancer.
