Teacher in trouble for lewd photo

042706_sausages.jpgBeen wondering when "Teachers Gone Wild" will come out? Houstonist has an early contender for roles in that video: the head coach and athletics director at Willis High School, who is under investigation for their parts in an inappropriate photo. And "parts" really is the right word here — the picture reportedly shows two men exposing themselves to a third man who seems to be sleeping during a school district chili cookoff. The photo was distributed via e-mail with the subject line, "Never be the first to go to sleep at the chili cook-off." Well, indeed.

All three men are apparently Willis ISD employees. Though district officials haven't said exactly who was involved in the picture, they placed the coach/athletics director on administrative leave, KPRC reported. Willis ISD Superintendent Brian Zemlicka said no students were involved in the incident, but a parent told KTRK she thinks there's potential danger for students:

Concerned parent Sharon Dunson said, "They're investigating it, but if that's what happened they shouldn't be around the school. They should not be around children."

Zemlicka said that, "in the public, [educators are] held to a higher standard and we need to try and live up to that." No one else has been disciplined in the photo incident.
