A brave teacher has claimed she has been sexually harassed by male students who she says have touched, phoned and sent her obscene emails.
Eva Rieder has joined the #MeToo movement and told the school board she had been a victim of harassment at least a dozen times in 15 years.
Rieder, who teaches maths and English, said she had made complaints about the behaviour towards her but it had not been dealt with.
In an emotional statement to the school board Rieder, who is also an author, said: “I can genuinely say, I do not walk into work everyday feeling safe.
The teacher told members of the Tamalpais Union High School District board: "I've been slandered by a student spreading rumors that I made a drunken sexual advance on him at a party.
"I have been touched more than once by a student who also argues that it's okay to describe his masturbation habits in the classroom.
