Brianna Said, of Hershey, PA, apparently slept with a 17 year old student on multiple occasions:
Yesterday, Said, who was fired from the Derry Twp. school in January, was charged with corruption of minors, which is a misdemeanor, and interfering with the custody of children, a felony. Since the youth is older than 16, Said cannot be charged with statutory rape.
Apparently the teen has been doing a lot of talking:
“I’m just going to be interested in what this young man has to say because rumor has it he’s gone to the school and totally changed his story and recanted everything,” he said.
The student, who is now 18 and lives in Philadelphia, no longer attends Milton Hershey School, police Sgt. Eric Singheiser said. The school would not say if he quit school or was expelled.
“We can’t discuss the disposition of any of our students,” said Connie McNamara, a Milton Hershey School spokeswoman.
Said taught 9th grade English at Milton Hershey high school for six and a half years before being dismissed back in January. She and the student had sex at the school as well as at her house.

I knew this teacher and she is a great person. Just because of this one incident doesn’t mean that she is a bad person. Everyone in this world is human and make mistakes. I am not saying that if this allogation is true that it isn’t wrong but I am saying…lets not judge everything about her because of this one mistake.
I am appalled that Ms. Said thought it was appropriate to have sex with a student of the Milton Hershey School while she was being paid to educate. It scares me to think that the Hershey School hired this woman who is obviously unable to conduct herself in a mature, professional, and dignified manner. When I think of all the “merits” taken from my child for not being “tidy” enough in her student home I have to wonder if some of these issues would be better pointed to the faculty of the school. Perhaps they should be monitored as closely as the children are.
See, ALberta. This is where it goes wrong. You say that because of this one incident that the teachers/faculty should be monitored similar to the students. It is a cycle that doesn’t need to be continued. MHS is doing the best that they can under the situation that they are in. You weren’t a student there, nor were you an employee there so you only see the side that your child is telling you. And as a child at MHS they will complain as would anyone that is coheired to do something that they might not want to do. That is reality. This is one issue that should not be commented on if you do not personally have a very close tie with the teacher or the school. Complaining just makes things worse for the teachers as well as the students. By forcing a more strict organizational pattern on the teachers, will result in a harder time for you daughter. Just understand that when you vent in an un-orthidoxed way that it could have reparations upon your child who is attending the school.
Honestly, Ms. Said should have knew where she stood…this lady was a good 28 years old messing with a 17 year old. She had a family and everything and now her whole life is ruined…she deserves to be prosected…and i know what im talking about cuz i go to MHS.
I agree with Joe Shmo.
Well said.
Iknew Ms. Said. She was a beautiful woman and she was very smart. To other people, this is a mistake but to them it shouldn’t be. I know people that has gotten married to people over thirteen years apart but there was no problems. It’s not like she was having sex with every person in the school. It was just like any other monogamous relationship. You can’t control who you like and/or love. It doesn’t work like that. And age! Yall worrying about age. Are you saying it’s bad for a 17 year-old to date a 28? We never see 19 year-olds that are dating a 38 year-old do we? No. So just think.
Ms. Said’s the best so yall can shut up and stop hatin’…
~MS. SAID MHS STILL LOVES YOU CHICA!!!!~
I agree with Alberta. My daughter is a student at the school and GOD help any teachers that think they are going to have sex with her. We parents sent our children to that school to get them away from that kind of disruptive behavior. And the school wants to sweep it under the rug! I don’t think so. It’s true…when the kids sdo something bad they want to repremand the kids quick but some of these house partents think thay can act and say whatever they want and get away with it. They need to be punished too!
There are many pious, self-righteous jokers posting on this board.
Hypocrites.
I was surprised when I heard this. She was a really nice teacher…guess too nice. haha. But even though she was a good teacher, it does not give her the right to go against the law. Besides…she really is not that good looking. What the hell was Lewis thinking? BTW-he was expelled. There are a few teachers, however, that would be acceptable to me.
Most alum and current students probably know who I’m talking about. haha
Does anyone know where Mrs Said went to high school?
Does anyone know if Mrs. Said went to high school in California
