A former Elizabethtown School District employee has been arrested for having sexual activity with a 15-year-old and sending nude photos to him and his 16-year-old friend.
According to Northwest Regional Police Department, the incident was reported on May 3, stating that an Elizabethtown School employee was sending "sexually explicit photos and videos" to multiple students.
The report also detailed a sexual encounter that the staff member had with a 15-year-old boy who she taught. The paraprofessional was later identified as 37-year-old Megan Carlisle.
Carlisle Caressed Victim's Genitals During School Periods
Carlisle, who worked at Elizabethtown Middle School as paraprofessional as the "ISS" classroom monitor, sent nude photos and videos of her performing sex acts on herself, which investigators found on the phones of several students.
A 15-year-old victim was later interviewed by police who told them that Carlisle "touched and caressed his genitals" during numerous school periods while he was in the "ISS" classroom on Apr. 28 of 2023.
Police say Carlisle then contacted the boy through Snapchat after school and discussed sexual contact many times. Carlisle then was reported to have sent nude photos and videos of herself to the boy and his 16-year-old friend.
Carlisle Had Sex with Student in Empty Parking Lot, Sent Him Money and Bought Him Vape Pods
That same night, Carlisle picked up the 15-year-old on the 400 block of Rockwood Dr. and parked in an empty parking lot. During this time, officers say Carlisle had sexual contact with the child.
An affidavit of probable cause alleges that after Carlisle left the parking lot, the victim texted her and asked for money to get food. The paraprofessional allegedly sent him $20 via Cash App.
The victim also told police that the next day, he was again texting Carlisle and told her he needed vape pods. Carlisle allegedly purchased four vape pods and gave them to the victim in the same area they had met the night before, then left.
Police say there is no telling how many students have seen Carlisle's nude photos and videos, as they were sent and shared to an unknown amount of students at the school.
Carlisle No Longer Employed at Elizabethtown Middle School
