CYPRESS, Texas — A Cy-Fair ISD teacher resigned Tuesday after being accused of having an improper relationship with a student.
The district identified the teacher as Kayden Burbank. He taught at Cy-Fair High School.
Burbank was placed on administrative leave on April 2 after campus administration became aware of allegations that he was having an improper relationship with a student. Burbank then resigned on April 9.
Burbank is due in court on Thursday on felony charges.
According to court documents, Burbank had a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old student beginning in February. They'd allegedly meet in his classroom or leave campus together and go to a nearby hotel.
Investigators said the relationship was discovered when Burbank's girlfriend found text messages on his phone between him and the student.
He's being held on a $60,000 bond.
CFISD released the following statement:
"Mr. Kayden Burbank, a former teacher at Cy-Fair High School, resigned on April 9, 2024. Mr. Burbank was placed on administrative leave on April 2, 2024, pending a complete investigation by campus administration and law enforcement, after campus administration was made aware of allegations of an improper relationship between an educator and student."
