'Once the school district’s personnel department and the school’s administration complete an investigation, a final determination of her employment status will be announced.”
It is believed a tip off to school chiefs led to the investigation into the teacher-student affair.
When police examined the teen's cell phone they found messages that were of a 'graphic sexual nature'.
Chiasson was charged with prohibited misdemeanor sexual conduct between an educator and student.
She was charged with a misdemeanor rather than a felony charges because of the student's age.
