PANOLA COUNTY, Texas — A former Carthage teacher accused of online solicitation of a minor and improper relationship with a student is set for a bench trial next year in Gregg County.

Lauren Nolan, 27, of Longview was indicted in Gregg County on the charges Oct. 7, 2020. Her case is set for a bench trial Feb. 9, 2022, in the 124th District Court. Nolan waived her right to a jury trial on Oct. 15. The case will be heard by Judge Alfonso Charles if not settled before the trial date. 

According to the indictments, Nolan was a Carthage High School employee when she shared a video of herself “exposing her breasts and genital area” to a student at Carthage Junior High in March 2018.
