An Atlanta-area teacher has been arrested after a
parent complained he allowed middle school
students to have sex in a storage unit in his
classroom.
Multiple media outlets report 25-year-old Quentin
Wright, a math teacher at The Champion School in
Stone Mountain, was taken into custody on Tuesday.
He has been charged with four misdemeanor counts
of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
An arrest warrant says Wright arranged times with
students when the classroom would be empty and
gave them condoms.
The investigation began after a mother said she
found text messages between Wright and her son.
"I was in a state of disbelief when I read all these
messages," the mother said, asking to remain
anonymous.
The mother said she looked at her 14-year-old son's
phone and discovered a shocking exchange of text
messages last Thursday between him and Quinton
Wright, a math teacher and coach at Champion
Theme Middle School in Stone Mountain.
"Basically he's allowing the students to have sex in
a storage room of his classroom," the mother said.
"He told my son you can have it from 7:30 to like
8:30," the mother said reading some of the
messages. "'Did you tell the girl what's going to
happen? That she cannot tell anybody?' basically
don't tell anyone I'm allowing you to use my
room."
The mother said the teacher also sent her son a
calendar showing teachers' schedules and a text
saying he did not have condoms.
"It's very sickening and disheartening, because we
trust administrators and educators when we drop our
kids off at school," the mother said.
A DeKalb County Schools spokesman says they are
cooperating with the District Attorney's Office and
Wright has been removed from the classroom.
