Maybe the law needs to be fine-tuned, but I suspect the state is within its rights to limit extracurricular communication with children. Remember that if a teacher engages in inappropriate communication, the school or school district will almost certainly be named as a defendant in any resulting lawsuit.
When a teacher has reason to communicate with a student regarding any school-related matter, I suggest the communication should be sent to the student using the school's official e-mail system. And it probably would be wise to send a copy to the parents.
