That may not be the correct term, but it sounds illegal unless the student is 18.

Yes, and attempted statutory rape if it was physical. Report it to the police immediately. If you are the minor or their parent, and wish to pursue civil legal action against the perpetrator, feel free to contact me for the legal help you'll need.
