FARGO (KFGO) – The jury trial for the former Fargo Public Schools employee accused of exchanging nudes with a student will start Tuesday.
33-year-old Ashley Peterson was fired from her role as a positive behavior technician at Davies High School in October 2023. Court records say she messaged a 16-year-old male student on Snapchat over several months, and their conversations became sexual. The two exchanged nude photos over the summer of 2023, and Peterson asked to meet up with the teen several times, but he refused. He told police he got sick of messaging Peterson and ended their conversations.
Peterson is also the former nanny for Fargo Schools Superintendent Rupak Gandhi. Gandhi fired Peterson shortly after she was fired from Fargo Schools.
The jury trial is set to begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday.
