A few centuries ago, when I was in HS back in the Chicago area, there was a student in my class who was dating a teacher. She started seeing him in her sophomore year. She was 16. Everyone knew about it, and we knew better than to "tease" her brother about it because he was a pretty tough guy.
She turned 18 her senior year, they got married and she dropped out with only a few months until graduation. He continued to teach there for at least 5 more years, but then I left the area so I don't know what happened after that.
