A Bossier Parish high school teacher was charged Friday with having a sexual relationship with a student.

Schyler Charles Elliot, 42, was arrested Friday morning by the Bossier City Police Department and charged with prohibited sexual conduct between an educator and a student.

Elliot was taken into custody at Bossier Parish School of Technology and Innovative Learning, according to a Bossier City police news release.

The charge follows an investigation stemming from information the police received that he had engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a juvenile.

“Detectives found evidence that Elliott allowed and participated in sexual acts with a Bossier Parish student in 2018 at Elliott’s residence,” the news release read.

The case remains under investigation.

Sonja Bailes, public relations liaison for Bossier Parish Schools, said, "Though this alleged incident did not happen at school, we are saddened and angered by the thought any child was victimized. While Bossier Parish School Board policy does not allow us to divulge information regarding personnel, parents can be assured this individual will not be returning to the BPSTIL campus. Our students' safety is paramount to everything we do and we will continue to take every precaution to ensure that."

Detectives are asking anyone with information regarding the crime or if they believe they may have been victimized by the suspect to call the Bossier City Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division at (318) 741-8652.
