Exactly. Also, teachers, I'm sure are aware of all this, if they were texting about some sort of a problem he was having, I'm pretty sure she would have had to make someone aware of the contact between them, her principal or someone. Just so it's all being noted and is above board

Even then it wouldn't be allowed and she'd be advised to keep the contact during school hours, at school and verbal. Not this personal exchange of phone numbers.

Most schools now, the teachers aren't even allowed to add the parents on Facebook/Twitter, never mind the kids. Which is fair enough, it can get in the way of the professional boundaries.

Yeah you're probably right, as you said both for the pupils and teachers sakes and safety
