Here are some suggestions for texting teachers respectfully:
- Address them properly (e.g. Mr./Ms. Last Name)
- Briefly introduce yourself and the class
- Ask a specific question about an assignment or topic
- Thank them for their time and assistance
- Use proper grammar, spelling and punctuation
- Keep the message brief
- Wait patiently for a response and be understanding if they don't reply immediately
It's best to communicate professionally and avoid casual language or personal topics when texting teachers. Stick to school-related questions so they know your intent is academic, not social. Following etiquette helps maintain positive teacher-student relationships.

17. California Law
An existing California law that gives school officials the right to suspend or expel a
student for bullying another student over the Internet or by other electronic means
has been updated to include bullying others through social networking websites.
The bill, AB 746, sponsored by Assemblywoman Nora Campos (D-San Jose) goes
into effect Jan. 1, after it was signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown on Friday.

29. Laws Pertaining to Sexting in the State of California
Under California law, individuals who distribute, possess or produce a sexually
explicit image of a minor could be charged under the State’s child pornography
statutes.
If the individual is tried as an adult and is convicted they could receive up to
6 years in jail and will generally be required to register as a sex offender.
California lawmakers have recently proposed a bill that would reduce the
punishment for first time sexting offenders who are minors. Such punishment
would include community service and mandatory counseling (to be paid for by
the minor’s parents). In addition, a bill has been proposed in California that
would punish a teenager with expulsion from school if they are caught sexting
in school.
