From there, the pair then allegedly had a sexual relationship that lasted more than a year.
Their sexual encounters took place at her house, his home, in her car and at the beach.
The arrest report said: “Weddle was his first and only sexual partner, and he believed himself to be in love with her."
Several witnesses came forward to report the pair’s relationship, and in November a secondary school guidance counsellor tipped off the Department of Children and Families.
That witness alerted the counsellor about discovering damning text messages between the teen and Weddle.
Another witness, who was hired to pressure wash Weddle’s home in April, alerted the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office that he saw the two kissing.
The witnesses also told authorities the teen showed him nude photos of Weddle on his phone, according to the arrest report.
Weddle allegedly gave the teen an iPhone, necklace, bracelet and other gifts during the relationship.
The special education teacher resigned on Monday from the J.E. Hall Center, where she helped train other teachers as a learning resource specialist, school authorities said.
She worked there for 11 months. Before that, she was a teacher at L.D. McArthur Elementary School.
