Berkeley County Schools says it's fired a middle school teacher accused of sexually abusing one of her students.

Superintendent Manny Arvon says evidence presented at a recent hearing convinced the school board to fire 27-year-old Musselman Middle School teacher Stephanie Jo Walters.

Walters has been on administrative leave since April 22. She was arrested May 1 on charges of sexual abuse by a person in a position of trust. Walters allegedly sent text messages to a male student and is accused of kissing him in a janitor's closet.

A working telephone number for Walters could not be located Thursday.

A committee in the House of Delegates has sent a bill to the House floor that would allow private, faith-based adoption agencies to discriminate against prospective parents based on their sexual orientation. Would you support this?

Yes, I think if it is a private organization it's okay.
No, there should be no discrimination.
It should depend on a case by case basis.
