Police say Chaverria engaged in sexual contact with a male Round Rock High School student, including at least twice inside her classroom, during the fall of 2019.
Randi Chaverria is accused of carrying on the sexual affair with the male student over the course of several weeks during the fall of 2019. According to a police affidavit cited by KVUE-TV, Chaverria performed oral sex on the student at least twice in her classroom at Round Rock High School.
The student confirmed to police that those incidents occurred in mid-October. He also showed investigators text messages the two had exchanged over the course of the relationship. He told police that she would call him to meet up for sexual encounters.
Randi Chaverria is an award-winning teacher. In 2018, she was named the Secondary Teacher of the Year. The district noted in a press release on May 8, 2018, that Chaverria had been teaching for five years. She had been the Family Science Teacher at Round Rock for two years at that point.
The release explains that Chaverria “credits her family’s unwavering belief in education and coming from a family of educators as her reason for developing a passion for teaching.” Chaverria was quoted explaining how she hoped to inspire her students to become active community members.
