Episode Details

A Denver French teacher was fired after an investigation revealed she allegedly pressured students—especially girls—to participate in kissing skits tied to grades, leading to emotional distress and academic penalties for those who refused. She also shared personal struggles like fertility issues and suicidal thoughts with students, which some found inappropriate. Despite claiming she offered alternatives, the school board deemed her methods irresponsible and terminated her for incompetence. The district praised students for speaking up and reaffirmed its commitment to student safety, while Honka remains listed as a teacher at another school.
