A Florida teacher at Space Coast Jr./Sr. High School faces termination after allegedly failing to report a sexual encounter between two students under his supervision in September 2025. The Brevard Public Schools district discovered the incident last week and asserts the teacher violated both state law and district policy by not notifying administration or law enforcement.

The district is recommending the teacher's firing, citing student safety as the paramount concern. The teacher, who served as former president of the Brevard Federation of Teachers, has not been publicly named. The current union president faces allegations of using union dues to challenge the disciplinary action, though specific details about this claim remain limited.

Union President Anthony S. Colucci defended the teacher, stating the district seeks to end the career of an educator with over 30 years of service without due process. The school board will consider the teacher's suspension without pay and termination recommendation during a March 10 meeting. The case highlights the legal obligations of educators to report sexual activity involving students and the potential consequences when those duties are allegedly neglected.
