I teach history in high school, and I have a female student that sits in the first row directly in front of my desk. She wears very short skirts, and I have noticed sometimes that she does not wear any panties. When she makes eye contact with me she almost immediately spreads her legs, and I think she is doing this to intentionally try to get some kind of reaction from me.
This is obviously a very embarrassing situation, so what should be done?

Oooh...touchy, touchy.
Consult with a supervisor (principal). Or, if that is not comfortable for you, ask the guidance counselor to meet with you and her. The guidance counselor needs to go over the school's sexual harassment policy, and makes sure the girl understands it. Bring up the school's dress code, as well. Shouldn't the skirts be mid-thigh, at least?
Don't do it alone, or you are asking for heaps of trouble.

Try giving your lessons while moving around the class and spend as much time as possible behind rather than in front of her. This will mean that she must either give up her little game or run the risk of others in the classroom copping an unwanted eyefull like yourself. She will be very reluctant to do this as word will quickly spread among her classmates about her antics.

1. Contact your union! This student is Trouble! Until they get there be sure you are NEVER alone with the young woman.
I could list a minimum of 10 suggestions but you've let this go on too long already. Your teaching career is in jeopardy. This situation is not embarrassing; for you it is dangerous.

you can talk to everyone in the school if you like. all i think will happen is the young lady might want to do the fool and find a way to hull you. find out what you need to do to get her moved out of your class! good luck and be careful b/c this is a very delicate matter.
peace

ah! uh! oh! - You can't touch, you can't even look. Cool-it.
I'd move her to a middle row - along with several other moves.
Don't mention it in class, that's what she wants
If you really think she is acting provocatively you may consider asking the school psychologist to talk to her. But me? I'd just move her to the middle and ignore it.

This is dangerous for sure. I believe you are correct -- she wants to get you in trouble. You may want to bring this to the attention of the principal and her at the same time.
Tough question -- I wish you luck.

Ask a female colleague to speak to her. Or talk to her yourself with a female colleague to ensure that there is no mis-understanding or risk of her crying molest or something.

Please bring this matter to her attention privately, but in a place where you will not be accused of sexual molestation. For instance in a classroom with you close to the door and with the door open. Please keep a diary and write down the times when she behaves this way and her reaction to your talk. This diary may come in handy if you are, for whatever reason, be brought to court regarding this student.

Get a female teacher to talk to her.
