Teacher gave student 'morning-after' pill

[The Straight Story]

Plant City High teacher resigned after accusations she gave student a contraceptive

PLANT CITY — A Plant City High School English teacher and cheerleading coach resigned this fall after buying a "morning-after" contraceptive for a student and having inappropriate Facebook discussions with the girl's boyfriend, officials said.

Faced with being fired, Ginger Parks, 41, of Plant City resigned Sept. 22.

The male student, an upperclassman, asked Parks for the pill because he and his girlfriend had sex after the homecoming dance in 2009, according to the school district's investigation.

Investigative records give this account of the events that followed:

Although she denied it at first, Parks said she bought the contraceptive at a Walgreens in Plant City and met the boy at a gas station to hand over the two-pill package. He then gave it to his girlfriend, who took the first pill in the school's parking lot.
