The letter said in part, "If you haven't already installed safeguards to protect our children and our teachers, we hope you consider these options."
Judge McSpadden recently presided over the case of Alexandria Vera, a former Aldine ISD teacher who pleaded guilty to having a sexual relationship with an eighth-grade student.
