Parents the student discovered during routine monitoring of his e-mail that a teacher sent their son topless photos of herself.

Feb 29, 2008 - Melissa R. Moss, 27, a first-year teacher who taught English at the independent Catholic high school, was charged in St. Charles County Circuit Court for furnishing pornographic material to a minor for sending topless photos of herself to a 15-year-old male student.

The school put Moss on administrative leave in November. She was fired two weeks later.

Moss graduated in May with a bachelor's degree from Lindenwood University in St. Charles and began teaching at Barat, a new school that opened last year.
