According to reports, the alleged victim who is now an adult told authorities that the relationship began in 2021 while he was still a student at the school.
The individual reportedly came forward in early 2026, claiming the encounters happened multiple times during the period.
Investigators said the alleged incidents took place in different locations, including inside the teacher’s car and within the school environment.
During the investigation, authorities reportedly discovered text messages exchanged between both parties, which they say support parts of the claims made by the former student.
Charges Filed
Fisler is no longer employed by the school and had already left the teaching profession before the allegations surfaced.
Following her departure, she reportedly started an apparel business that sells unofficial sports merchandise and later worked as a business administrator for a landscaping company.
Authorities have now formally charged her with several serious offenses, including:
• Six counts related to assault involving a minor
• Child welfare-related offenses
• Official misconduct
If convicted, she could face a lengthy prison sentence, according to authorities.
The case is currently under investigation as legal proceedings move forward.
