Texas Teacher Accused of Sex Assault

(Cypress, Texas) A 43-year-old math teacher at Hopper Middle School, Corrie Anne Long, has been accused of engaging in a sexual relationship with a student.

Long has been charged with sexual assault of a child and improper relationship with a student.

Long’s relationship with the student, who was 15 years old and in the 8th grade, was brought to light when another student saw the two of them engaging in “odd behavior,” according to court documents. The witness told another teacher, and an investigation was launched.

The witness reported seeing the student smack Long on the rear end in an afternoon tutorial class and also saw Long sitting on the boy’s lap. The witness said the boy would also come into his 5th period class to “mess” with the teacher and would flirtatiously touch her hair.

When investigators questioned the boy, he allegedly admitted to having sexual contact with Long, who was his math teacher. The boy said Long would get him out of HQT class and would take him into her empty classroom, where the sexual encounters would occur. One of the incidents allegedly happened just before the Thanksgiving break in 2013.

Long was booked and released on $60,000 bond.
