A 25-year old teacher from Archer High School turned herself in to Gwinnett County sheriff’s deputies on charges relating to an alleged improper relationship with a student.
Jail records show Sarah Katherine Brooks, 25, was booked into the Gwinnett County Detention Center shortly after 4 p.m. Friday on a charge of sexual assault by persons with supervisory or disciplinary authority. She was released later Friday on $11,200 bond.
A warrant Gwinnett County police took out for Brooks’ arrest states she “did, while employed as a teacher, engage in sexual contact with the victim, who said accused knew or should have known was a student enrolled at the same school.”
The warrant shows the incident occurred in December at the student’s home.
In a letter to parents this past week, Archer Principal Ken Johnson told parents that the student was a senior and that the school learned about the teacher-student relationship from police. Gwinnett County Police have not released any details about the case, citing confidentiality laws that protect juvenile victims.
School officials confirmed Tuesday that the instructor had resigned. References to her that had existed on Archer’s athletics website earlier in the semester have been removed.
“Ethics matter, and the trust our community places in its educators matters to Archer and to Gwinnett County Public Schools. This is not something we take for granted,” Johnson said in his letter to parents. “With that in mind, I thank you for your continued support of our school and its students.”
