Nassau County Police say the two had sex in a car in the parking lot of Massapequa High School on March 19. The boy's father called police the next day, after his son told him why he was late getting home.
Wantagh schools Superintendent Carl Bonuso told Newsday that Kennedy, who has been a teacher for 3 years, has been reassigned outside the classroom pending the outcome of the investigation.
Kennedy was arraigned in First District Court in Hempstead on Thursday. Her bail was set at $35,000.
