This evening, My 16 year old daughter told me her teacher, when she was 8 years old, took her to a separate room where he touched her private areas and made her stroke his penis. Can anything be done to this person who is still teaching?

If you are in the US, you almost certainly can, depending on where you live. Some states have no statue of limitation on childhood sexual abuse, while others have limits from 3 to 30 years. However, that 'clock' usually starts ticking from either age of majority or from the time the abuse is discovered--not from when it occurred.
Here is a listing of statues by state:

First he can and should be reported to the school, They have their own policies and procedues and if nothing else, perhaps he can be taken out of teaching. Not sure if one old report will do a lot, but often one person being brave enough to say something will get others to also. And perhaps if he is still doing it, a school investigation will find newer victims.
Next you report it to the police, as old as it is, it may or may not be past a SOL, and even if not, with little evidence and so old they may not do anything, but you have done all you can do at least.

What state are you in so we can look up the law for you. In most cases of criminal conduct against a child there is no SOL. That is one of the newer laws. I believe it applies here.
