Cleveland High School theatre teacher and Student Council sponsor Laurie Anne Lewis was arrested Aug. 12 on charges of prostitution in downtown Houston.

According to a Houston Police Department spokesman, Lewis, 38, was arrested in “an ongoing undercover operation.”

Since Lewis’ arrest is part of a continuing investigation, the offense report regarding her arrest has not been made public. Charges were brought against Lewis by HPD officers early in the morning of Aug. 13.

Lewis posted a $500 cash bond later that day through local Houston bonding agency A Better Bail Bonds. She is scheduled to be arraigned in Harris County Criminal Court 2 on Aug. 20.

After learning of Lewis’ arrest, Cleveland ISD superintendent Kerry Cowart confirmed that Lewis had been arrested. Cowart went on to say that Lewis “has been placed on paid administrative leave pending resolution of this matter, effective immediately.”

Lewis had been teaching in CISD since August 2006. In addition to teaching theatre and sponsoring the Student Council, Lewis was also the sponsor for Cleveland High School’s One-Act Play competition.

Well, they have to find some way to supplement their income during summer vacation, you know.

At least she wasn't banging the kids.

As far as we know that is.

Gosh, if our teachers are not obsessed with having sex with their students, they are having sex for pay. Sex, sex, sex … what are they teaching these people at “teacher school”?

Lewis was also the sponsor for Cleveland High School’s One-Act Play competition.

Her One-Act Play comes with a price list, though.

Shoot, if she dropped 50 lbs, she’d look just like Kate Beckinsale.

And now, a word from the NEA:

“We must fund education more so women will not have to resort to this “back alley” approach to “teaching”.”
