SPRINGFIELD - Former Holyoke middle school teacher Lisa Lavoie was sentenced Wednesday to five years probation on charges related to having sex with a student.

Lavoie, 25, pleaded guilty last month in Hampden Superior Court to three counts of statutory rape and enticement of a child under the age of 16.

Assistant District Attorney Patrick S. Sabbs has asked Hampden Superior Court Judge Cornelius Moriarty to sentence her to 3 to 5 years in state prison.

Moriarty attached 10 conditions to Lavoie's probation, including no contact with the young man or his immediate family. If the young man contacts her, Lavoie must report it to the Probation Department immediately.

Lavoie was a teacher at the Maurice Donohue Elementary School in Holyoke when she ran off with a 15-year-old male student in February 2009.

After a multi-state search that involved the FBI and U.S. Border Patrol, Lavoie was found with the boy in a motel room in West Virginia on Feb. 23, 2009.
