I was recently arrested for a very stupid mistake on my part… forgetting to pay a check that bounced for $50!!! I have to go to court and although the charges will more than likely be dismissed since I have NO criminal background, I am still worried about my job. I am a teacher and am afraid I will lose my job because of this. I teach in Texas and am also new to the state so I do not know much about the law here. Even though it is such a small thing, it is still considered a crime of moral turitude. If anyone knows anything about this type of situation, I would appreciate the advice!! Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if you can teach in Texas with a dismissal on your criminal record?
