Facebook is the "Gateway Drug" to Sexual Misconduct so Missouri Teachers Banned From Facebook Contact With Students
The Missouri legislature passed a groundbreaking law that goes a long way towards increasing student protection from sexual predators but contains one section that will ban teachers and students from communications on Facebook through private accounts.
Under Section162.069: "By January 1, 2010... Teachers cannot establish, maintain, or use a work-related website unless it is available to school administrators and parents, or have a nonwork-related website that allows exclusive access with a current or former student."
