FORT WORTH, Texas -- On the same day reports surfaced of a Tennessee teacher facing sex charges, a Texas teacher was also charged with having sex with a male student in a similar case.
The high school teacher in Lumberton, Texas, was arrested for allegedly having an ongoing sexual relationship with a 17-year-old boy.
Kathy Denise White was indicted Tuesday on two counts of an improper relationship between an educator and a student.
She left the jail in Lumberton after posting $5,000 bond, walking past reporters yelling questions.
It's alleged by prosecutors that White had sex with a 17-year-old twice during a four-month relationship: once at home and once at Lumberton High School.
White, 39, faces up to 40 years in prison and a $20,000 fine if convicted.
KBTV in Beaumont reported that the student told administrators in January he was having a relationship with White who, at the time, was his resource teacher.
