Female Teacher and Female Student in Texas

(Fort Bend County, Texas) Two years ago, a married mother-of-four and teacher at Lake Olympia Middle School, Terrie Rhodes, was accused of an improper relationship with a female student and placed on administrative leave.

After a year with no charges being filed, Rhodes was reinstated. However, the investigation by the Sheriff continued.

This week, the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office had enough evidence to arrest 46-year-old Terrie Rhodes. She now faces charges of indecency with a child/sexual contact and improper relationship between educator and student.

The sheriff’s office on Thursday said they believe Rhodes and the student had sexual contact in one of the classrooms at Olympia.

"I’m not gonna go into much detail on that. It was sexual contact. Female student and female teacher, inappropriate touching. Things of that nature," Chief Deputy Brady of the FBCSO said.

Investigators said it took two years to build the case because they had trouble getting records from two cell phone service providers.

The Sheriff's office indicated that there may be more victims.


Rhodes was booked into custody at the Fort Bend County Jail with bond set at $30,000.
