A former Glastonbury High School teacher who had a sexual relationship with a student was sentenced to probation Monday in Superior Court in Hartford.
Zachary Loavenbruck, 31, formerly of Coventry, pleaded guilty to coercion before Judge David Gold. The plea was entered under the Alford doctrine, which means he does not admit guilt, but acknowledges there is enough evidence to secure a conviction.
Loavenbruck's full sentence is one year in jail, suspended, and two years of probation. He must not teach during his probationary period, Gold said.
