A former Edinburg High School coach turned himself in to police following an investigation into an inappropriate relationship between an educator and a student, according to the district.

Christian Roxburgh turned himself in to Edinburg CISD Police custody Wednesday and was arraigned on a charge of improper relationship between an educator and a student. 

Hidalgo County jail records show Roxburgh was released that same day on a $25,000 bond.

Roxburgh resigned from his position as a social studies teacher and coach at Edinburg High School, an Edinburg CISD spokesperson confirmed to Channel 5 News.

Roxburgh was still listed as an employee on the campus website as of Wednesday evening.

According to the news release, Edinburg CISD “immediately took action consistent with district policy and state law” after learning of the allegations involving a former student.

Details of the allegations were not provided.

The district said additional information will be limited to protect student privacy and comply with federal law.

“Counseling and support resources will be made available as needed,” the district said.
