Florida Teacher Arrested for Alleged Sexual Relationship with Student, Used Google Doc to Communicate
BOCA RATON, Fla. – A former science teacher at Donna Klein Jewish Academy in Boca Raton, Florida, is behind bars, accused of engaging in a months-long sexual relationship with a student. Elias Gordon Farley, 26, was arrested after the student reported the alleged abuse on November 18th, according to an arrest affidavit.
Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office detectives say Farley used a shared Google Doc to communicate secretly with the student, escalating from casual conversations to explicit messages detailing sexual activity and planned meetings. The student alleged that the physical relationship began in mid-September, with encounters occurring in Farley’s office and a classroom. She further claimed the relationship progressed to sexual acts, including oral sex and intercourse, inside the classroom. The student also reported visiting Farley’s apartment twice in early November, where additional sexual encounters allegedly took place.
Investigators obtained a search warrant for Farley’s apartment, finding evidence that corroborated the student’s account. School surveillance footage also reportedly showed Farley and the student entering his office and a classroom together around the time of the alleged incidents.
The allegations came to light after the student confided in an art teacher, showing her bruises and bite marks she attributed to Farley.
Farley, who refused to speak with detectives after being read his Miranda rights, is currently being held on $500,000 bond. He faces felony charges of unlawful sexual activity with a minor and offense against a student by an authority figure.
Donna Klein Jewish Academy released a statement saying they are cooperating fully with the investigation and have terminated Farley’s employment. The school emphasized its commitment to maintaining a safe and supportive environment for its students, faculty, and families.
The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging anyone with information to contact the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
