Pennsylvania police charged a woman on Wednesday with having sex with a teen student on multiple occasions.

Michelle Mercogliano, 35, a special education teacher at Conestoga High School, allegedly had sex with the 16-year-old student 12 times in February. WPVI reported that most of the encounters transpired at Mercogliano’s parents’ home.

Mercogliano was also accused of purchasing medical marijuana for the student about 15 times.

According to the Daily Voice, the victim said communication outside of class with Mercogliano began early in the school year when he was late for school and Mercogliano asked his friend for his Snapchat handle. Mercogliano allegedly messaged the boy on the platform and offered him a ride.

The boy reportedly said he and Mercogliano first had sex at his home. He also claimed that she has been giving him marijuana once a week since December, according to the Daily Voice.

Mercogliano — who has not been arrested — was charged with institutional sexual assault, corruption of minors, delivery of a controlled substance, and other related offenses. Chester County prosecutors said she is expected to turn herself in with her lawyer present.

The Tredyffrin/Easttown School District has placed Mercogliano on leave. In a statement issued to WPVI, Superintendent Dr. Richard Gusick said they have no indication that the criminal investigation involves other students.
