A MARRIED high school PE teacher is facing two sex assault charges after she allegedly sent a student X-rated photos and straddled him in a car.

Alisha Crins, 39, was teaching at Ponaganset High School in Glocester, Rhode Island, when she sexted and kissed a student, she admitted to cops.

She allegedly found her sophomore student’s phone number online on the guise of asking him to do work for her while she was on vacation.

Messages between them quickly turned “flirty”, court documents reveal.

In an affidavit, the boy stated Crins would often text him telling him that he “looked good”.

Allegedly, she once asked him if she could wear his jersey during the high school pep rally.

By the boy’s junior year, the PE teacher’s messages had turned sexual, the affidavit stated.

When he was 17, Crins allegedly sent photos and videos of herself in lingerie and asked him for a kiss.

She then reportedly gave the teen her address and entered his car where she grabbed his face, kissed him for 15 minutes and stated: “I can’t believe I’m going to do this … You can’t tell anybody.”

Investigators say she then bombarded the boy with flattering texts about what a “good kisser” he was and how she couldn’t “stop thinking about his lips.”

She said he had “impressed” her, according to the affidavit.

Crins allegedly invited the student over to her house again weeks later.

This time she allegedly straddled the boy in the backseat where she sexually assaulted him.

They both told investigators they had discussed having sex when he turned 18, but never did.

He said the teacher also sent nude photos and videos of herself, but only after he became a legal adult.

She explained to police that she had asked the teen, then 18, to stop contacting her because she was his teacher and she was married.

Police said she confessed to exchanging text messages with the student that contained “sexual innuendoes” and said they had only kissed once on a side street next to her house.

The student, who graduated last spring, filed a formal complaint against Crins with Rhode Island State Police back in October, triggering a criminal investigation.

Crins was charged Friday with two counts of third-degree sexual assault. She is scheduled to be arraigned on March 18.

Foster-Glocester Superintendent Dr. Renee Palazzo said in October that Crins was no longer employed in the district.
