[Previous 3/23/12 post]
(Swanton, Ohio) A 44-year-old psychology teacher at Swanton High School, Michelle Blosser, has been accused of engaging in sex with a male student.

Blosser was suspended early this month and now it's reported that she has been indicted on one count of sexual battery.

Ms. Blosser, of Fayette, Ohio, was born in 1967, according to Ohio voter registration records. She teaches psychology, sociology, and advanced placement psychology and was the high school's teacher of the month in December.

"She is always willing to go the extra mile to help our students be successful," Principal Steve Gfell said at the time.

Rumors at the school led to the investigation of Blosser.
