Callisburg ISD removed an employee from campus and placed that worker on administrative leave after an arrest, Superintendent Chris Bradshaw said in a letter dated Sept. 9, 2026. Bradshaw wrote that the alleged conduct happened off campus, and said the district would cooperate with law enforcement and file the reports state law requires. The letter names neither the employee nor the charge.
Separately, a Grayson County jail record shows Collinsville police booked Spencer Brian Brewer on Sept. 9 on a charge of online solicitation of a minor involving sexual conduct, with Sept. 2 listed as the alleged offense date. The records retrieved do not connect that booking to the employee the district described, and a booking entry documents an accusation rather than a finding of guilt. Bond, release date and disposition were blank when the entry was checked Sept. 10.
Texas Penal Code Section 33.021 counts as a minor both a person younger than 17 and a person the accused believes is younger than 17, so the charge by itself does not establish that a child took part in the messages. Subsection (c) makes electronic solicitation of a minor for a sexual meeting a crime even when no meeting happens, and subsection (f) grades that offense a second-degree felony. The booking record does not name the subsection alleged.
Texas school officials work under a 48-hour reporting clock. Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 571 on June 21, 2025, adding Chapter 22A to the Education Code, and TEA's implementation guidance gives a principal two days to report evidence of covered misconduct to the superintendent, and the superintendent two days from learning of it to notify TEA and the State Board for Educator Certification. Soliciting sexual contact with a student or minor is covered conduct. Callisburg's 2021-22 employee handbook required staff to tell a principal or supervisor within three calendar days of a felony arrest, and required the superintendent to report an educator's arrest or charge to TEA investigators.

Cooke County has seen the charge before. The Sheriff's Office said a Gainesville operation on July 15 and 16, 2025, produced two arrests on second-degree felony solicitation counts, and identified one of those arrested, Hunter Clayton Jordan, as a Gainesville ISD employee who was driving a district vehicle. The suspects had traded messages with undercover officers posing as minors, the sheriff said. Fort Bend County's sheriff reported four arrests, each carrying an online solicitation count, from an undercover chat operation at the end of that month.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children logged roughly 1.4 million CyberTipline reports of online enticement in 2025, up about 158% from 2024. The center attributes part of that growth to the 2024 REPORT Act, which required electronic service providers to report suspected enticement and child sex trafficking, and says the tips are allegations rather than proven offenses.

TEA opened an Educator Misconduct Dashboard on June 2, 2026, publishing information on misconduct reports, investigations, educator-certification sanctions and Do Not Hire Registry placements. The agency also maintains a public lookup for educator certificates.
