Two Silver Lake students had sex on a school bus as other students cheered, Kingston police said.


The incident took place Dec. 12 in Kingston as the bus was on the way to Silver Lake Regional High School in Kingston and Silver Lake Regional Junior High School in Pembroke, authorities said.


The two students allegedly involved in the sex act were a 16-year-old male high school student and a 15-year-old female junior high school student, police Lt. David Griffiths said.


Three students cheered while the girl performed oral sex on the boy, he said.


All of the students involved, including those who cheered, will be charged, he said.


Griffiths said the Plymouth County District Attorney’s office is reviewing the case. ‘‘We’re not exactly sure what we’re charging them with,’’ he said.


He expects charges to be filed in a week or two against the five students involved.


Kingston police Sgt. Zachary Potrykus said school administrators told police about the incident on the afternoon of Dec. 12.


Silver Lake Regional High School Principal Richard Kelley said last night that the students ‘‘received appropriate discipline in school.’’ He would not say if they were suspended.


Kingston junior high and high school students routinely ride the same bus.


The Silver Lake Regional School District has students from Kingston, Pembroke, Halifax and Plympton.


Last year at the private Rivers School in Weston, five students were suspended after engaging in sexual activity in the back of a bus. Four male students and one female student were involved.


In ‘‘Rated Risky,’’ a three-part series on teens and sex published by The Patriot Ledger in May, teens said adults are unaware of the casual attitude toward sex in many high schools today.


They said they knew of incidents in which teens had sex on a bus on school field trips, in a teacher’s lounge and in a school elevator. One teen said he knew people who had sex under the bleachers at a sporting event.


The Ledger surveyed 527 South Shore high school students, held a roundtable discussion with 10 teens and interviewed rape victims, police, dating violence experts and others.
