a student notes, going over her house when her
parents were not home, and kissing her on the
lips constituted good cause for termination on
grounds of immorality in the case of Rabe v
Lewisville ISD, 1994. Even if the student consents
to the relationship, grounds for termination may
be established. As noted in the Molina v
Pasadena ISD, 1989 decision, “Even if the student
were an adult, the fact that a student was as
student is the controlling point. It is this status
and this relationship that constitutes immoral
conduct.”
