TRENTON, N.J. — A former social studies teacher in New Jersey has admitted to pocketing “charitable donations” from students looking to improve their grades.
Megan Laboy, 30, of Howell pleaded guilty Friday to theft by deception, admitting she received $200 to $500 in donations from her Colts Neck High School students during the 2008-09 school year.
The students were told they would receive extra credit for the donations and the cash would go to charities, but Laboy kept the money.
