According to the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office, someone sent an anonymous letter to the school board alleging sexual relationships between two Jay High School Teachers and male juveniles. The board then turned it over to deputies on June 28.
During the course of the investigation, two teenage boys told deputies they had sex with 33-year-old April Watson at her home and the home of another teacher, 31-year-old Ashley Burkett. A third boy said he had sex with Burkett both at her house and Watson's house. The sex allegedly took place between July and October 2007.

Deputies say both teachers confessed to having sex with the boys. They turned themselves into the Santa Rosa County Jail on Thursday. Both were released after posting $50,000 bond. Both must also wear GPS tracking devices.
The Sheriff's Office would not say whether the three victim's are students of Watson and Burkett.
According to the school's website, Watson teaches math and is an advisor for the Junior varsity cheerleaders. Burkett teaches reading and special ed and is an assistant volleyball coach.
News 5 has not been able to reach the Santa Rosa County School Board to find out whether Watson and Burkett will face any disciplinary action from the district.
