\nA teacher at a Jefferson County elementary school has been arrested for having sexual conversations with a 5th grade student.<\/p>\n
According to a Louisville Metro police arrest citation, 36 year-old Sydnee Graf is a 5th grade math teacher and was having the conversations with the student while Jefferson County Public Schools were on a Non-Traditional Instruction day.<\/p>\n
The citation states that detectives were able to review the conversations between Graf and the juvenile and the screen shots and video recordings showed images of Graf and displayed her name in one corner.<\/p>\n
Police said the conversations discussed oral sodomy and that Graf made arrangements to meet the juvenile. She was arrested December 15 while picking up the juvenile, who is under the age of 12, near his home.<\/p>\n
According to police, after being given her Miranda Rights, Graf admitted to having a previous conversation with the juvenile.<\/p>\n
During her December 16 arraignment, the court entered a not guilty plea for Graf and kept her bond at $100,000 cash. If the bond is posted, Graf will be placed in the home incarceration program.<\/p>\n
Graf is listed as a teacher at Smyrna Elementary School on the school\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
Jefferson County Public Schools sent a letter to parents of Smyrna Elementary students advising them Graf will be reassigned and will not have contact with students during the investigation. A mental health team will be available for any student that would benefit from talking with them.
