End of year DVDs are a popular classroom memento. After all, who doesn’t love a nice reminder of the highlights of the past school year? The classmates. The holiday parties. The science fair. The couch sex.

Yes, the couch sex. An Elk Grove, California teacher sent home a DVD that included a homemade sex scene. It’s unclear what precisely was on the DVD, since the parents only watched a few seconds before removing the DVDs from their players and immediately destroying the discs (*cough* yeah, right *cough*). Although the school district tried to keep the teacher’s identity under wraps, news agencies soon ferreted out her name and splashed it across the paper. The woman in question teaches the fifth grade, and the video was sent home to her 24 students. When the teacher realized what had happened, she phoned each family (in hysterics, of course) to apologize and asked that they destroy the video immediately.

The parents interviewed seemed more bemused than anything. One father reported that the DVD necessitated an impromptu discussion of the birds and bees that lasted until midnight. Nobody seemed to be out for blood, though. So far, other than presumably wanting to crawl under a rock and die, the teacher has come out unscathed. It looks unlikely that they’ll fire the teacher. As legal defense expert Ken Rosenfeld so eloquently stated, “It’s felony stupid, but it’s not a crime.” I personally think she’s already been punished enough, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she quit. I’d personally change my name, undergo painful reconstructive surgery and start a new life as a sheep farmer in Siberia before I went in front of those students again.
