A longtime Tulsa Edison High School music teacher was
arrested Monday on allegations that he had a sexual
relationship with two students.

Bradley Hart Morris, 44, was charged Monday with three
counts of sexual battery and two counts of forcible oral
sodomy. Court documents allege he groped and had oral
sex with an 18-year-old student between Aug. 1., 2010,
and June 3, 2011, and "kissed, groped, and fondled"
another 16-year-old student between Jan. 1, 2011, and
June. 1, 2011.

Tulsa Public Schools spokesman Chris Payne said
Morris, who started at Edision in 2000, resigned in June,
2011.

"It was a personnel issue and he chose to resign," Payne

Brad , I'm sure, is still a smart musician..in both Applied Music and
Theory.
Excellent motivator...but became pretty much Egocentric (
Musician...right?) and hard to control. No..he's not a SexManiac, but the
allegations may prove otherwise.
Even now, I'd trust him with any music group....with a chaparone....
