A Clearwater Valley High School teacher has pleaded guilty in Grangeville’s 2nd District Court to felony exploitation of a minor.

24-year-old Kammeron Mangun had previously pleaded not guilty and has been in the Idaho County Jail since his Oct. 2 arrest. Bail has been set at $100,000.

Mangun was taken into custody following a report of an inappropriate relationship between a teacher and a former student. An investigation by the Idaho County Sheriff’s Office led to Mangun’s arrest.

According to the criminal complaint, Mangun is accused of attempting to induce a 16-year-old to send him “erotic nude or erotic semi-nude photos” of the child, which is a felony.

Mangun was hired by the Mountain View School District in 2021 as a physical education teacher and a tennis and track coach at Clearwater Valley High School.

It’s unclear if he’s still employed by the school district.

Sentencing has been scheduled for February 26.
