Allegations of an inappropriate student – teacher relationship at Fresno’s University High School have shocked the small campus located on Fresno State.
On Tuesday, authorities from University High School contacted University Police about 31 year old music teacher, Jonathan Malcolm and suspicions he was having a relationship with an under aged student.
Malcolm, who has been a teacher at the high school for 3 years, was arrested Wednesday night on charges of annoying and/or molesting a child under the age of 18 and distributing lewd material.
Although, all of the students and parents KSEE 24 News spoke said they don’t believe the allegations, Dr. James Bushman, the head of University High School said the concerns are legitimate.
Bushman said, “We came upon some information we thought that should be acted upon and again, we weighed the validity of that information and made a decision in this case that we needed the University Police to do a full investigation.”
A joint investigation between University Police and Fresno Police prompted a search warrant resulting in enough information to arrest Malcolm.
Malcolm was booked into the Fresno County Jail Wednesday night.
He has since made bail.
Dr. Bushman said all parents of University High School students have been notified about the allegations and arrest.
The School Board is scheduled to meet Friday to discuss the music teacher’s employment status.
