“There’s one last lesson to be learned from this former teacher – students are not targets for sexual relationships,” Yost said in a press release. “She destroyed her career, family and reputation for the thrill of an affair, without bothering to think about the consequences.”

Johnson served as a coach and intervention specialist at Bloom-Vernon Local School District.
