15-year-old Texas boy gets birthday lap dance from teacher

HOUSTON — A Houston-area teacher has been charged with doing a lap dance for a boy at school on his 15th birthday.

A criminal complaint says 42-year-old Felicia A. Smith of Spring was charged Thursday with having an improper relationship with a student. Online jail records do not list an attorney for Smith, who was freed on $30,000 bond.

Investigators say the teacher in the Aldine (AHL’-deen) Independent School District allegedly did the suggestive dance on Feb. 26 at Stovall Middle School in front of other students.

The district released a statement saying the teacher has been removed from campus amid the investigation.

No publicly listed phone number could be located Friday for Smith.
