NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (AP) – Five fifth-grade students face criminal charges after authorities said four of them had sex in front of other students in an unsupervised classroom and kept a classmate posted as a lookout for teachers.
The students were arrested Tuesday at the Spearsville school in rural north Louisiana, authorities said. Two 11-year-old girls, a 12-year-old boy and a 13-year old boy were charged with obscenity, a felony. An 11-year-old boy, the alleged lookout, was charged with being an accessory.
“After 44 years of doing this work, nothing shocks me anymore,” said Union Parish Sheriff Bob Buckley. “But this comes pretty close.”
Authorities said the incident happened March 27 at the school, which houses students from kindergarten through 12th grade. A high school teacher normally watches the fifth-grade class at the time, but went to an assembly for older students and the class was inadvertently left unattended, Buckley said.
The class, which had around 10 other students, was alone for about 15 minutes, he said.
“When no teacher showed up, the four began to have sex in the classroom with the other elementary students in the classroom with them,” he said.
It took a day for authorities to find out about the incident. A student who had been in the class told a high school student about it the next day, Buckley said. The student told a teacher, and school officials notified the sheriff’s office. Detectives began questioning students Thursday.
School officials did not return calls seeking comment.
The students, who were not identified because of their age, were released to their parents after their arrests, Buckley said. They will next be arraigned in juvenile court.
A message seeking comment from the district attorney was not immediately returned.
Buckley said it was unclear what penalties the children could face

Re: Fifth-graders posted look out, have sex in class
Wake up and smell the KY guys, it’s amusing when I see the older generations shocked at this kind of thing.
Five to six years ago when I was in year 7-8 (12-13 yr old) my class mates regularly had sex in the toilets, girls kept getting caught in boys toilets and vice versa but nobody took any action.
Nowadays I hear about girls from the same school who will pay older boys money so that they let them do that which is best done to a ChupaChup, amongst other things… I personally find it sick because these girls don’t seem very hour-glass shaped so the only guys who give them attention are desperados who can’t get a proper lady..
Re: Fifth-graders posted look out, have sex in class
Whys everyone surprised...do you lot still think people wait till they are married to have sex...we had a 10yr old have a child here last year...age of sex is getting lower and lower...16 used to be a standard age but now 13 seems to be the norm these days...only a matter of time before it becomes 11 year olds...
What was more concerning though is that there are reports that older kids have protection rackets at schools and payments tend to involve some sort of sexual favours normally...now kids running a business like that at that age is quite worrying...
