A former teacher and coach at a central Kansas high school has been sentenced to a year of probation for endangering a child and furnishing alcohol to a minor.
28-year-old Todd Brittingham must also surrender his teaching license to the state under the sentence he received Monday in McPherson County District Court. A six-month jail sentence was suspended.
Brittingham taught English and coached boys’ and girls’ soccer at McPherson High School. KAKE-TV reports he was initially charged with four felony counts of having unlawful sexual relations with a 16-year-old female student in 2010.
Those charges were dismissed when Brittingham pleaded guilty in November to misdemeanor counts of child endangerment and furnishing alcohol to a minor.
