A physical education teacher and coach faces a string of sexual assault charges after allegedly having sex with a 15-year-old girl in his office just after football practice.

Barber, who teaches and coaches football and baseball is accused of having a sexual encounter with the 15-year-old at the school on Sept. 12, according to Pennsylvania State Police.
It began with text messages and private messages on Twitter. "This past summer they became in contact and started communicating via Twitter," stated Pennsylvania State Police Corporal Gerard McShea. McShea said the girl also sent Barber nude pictures.
An affidavit states that Barber said to the teen, “wow you are a very sexy young ladyâ€. Another message sent on Sept. 11 at 10:42 a.m., stated, “You could have been here but it’s all good. I shouldn’t temp (sic) myself anyway.†A third message, sent at 11:14 a.m., read, “But your body makes me crazy. Ugh.â€
According to the affidavit, the teen met Barber at the middle school around 3:30 p.m. Sept. 12, after he finished coaching the football team. The teen and Barber allegedly went to his office and talked about the girl’s mother. They allegedly began to kiss and then went into the back room located in his office where Barber removed her clothing and they had sexual intercourse, according to the affidavit.
The teen told authorities the sexual intercourse was for an abbreviated period of time because she was in a lot of pain due to it being her first time.
