CHESAPEAKE, Ohio (WSAZ) --A local school teacher charged with juvenile sexual battery made his first court appearance Monday morning

Donald Clark Jr. taught math at Chesapeake, Ohio High School.

The superintendent says Clark resigned last week.

Investigators say evidence shows the 29- year old had consensual, but inappropriate sexual contact with a female, teenage student.

Today in Lawrence County Muncipal Court, the alleged victim had a protective order issued restricting any contact with the felony suspect.

Donald Clark is still in jail on a fifty thousand dollar bond.

Sexual Battery is a Felony of the Third Degree.

All these blogs and nothing has been done about the guy. Anyone know when his trial is or why nothing is said on the local news. Also what has been done with the administration that knew about it. Is the system of Chesapeake crazy? Parents wake up and find out what is going on!!!!

Poor cocky freshman- If this is how you were taught at Chesapeake I would hate the school too. You better learn something in the next three years or you will be like most graduates from this school system. You can't talk, you can't write but if you are lucky you will become an administrator.
