You can have sex with students and do six months in jail or get probation. But kill a few birds and they REALLY throw the book at you.
Oct 12, 2007 -
The state board that licenses teachers will investigate whether to discipline a Valley City man recently sentenced in federal court for killing dozens of raptors and other migratory birds.TT - To their credit, the North Dakota Education Standards and Practices Board has their Code of Ethics online where it is easily located and their Board meeting minutes are all online.
Fifty-eight-year-old Alvin Schumacher teaches math and science at North Central Public School at Rogers. He was sentenced to 18 months of probation after pleading guilty in June to the hunting violations. (He also has to pay $20,000 in "restitution to the government.")
The Education Standards and Practices Board decided this week to look into whether Schumacher's conviction makes him a poor role model for students.
Perhaps that is why in one year of this blog, there has only been one North Dakota teacher arrested and sentenced for sex with a student.
(Two others were mentioned in minutes during 2007 as having been sentenced, but their offenses were not given and no information was available online.)
