Bucy allegedly admitted she supplied liquid for the student to use on his vaping device and that she purchased marijuana from another student, the report states.
According to the report, Bucy allegedly once posted to Twitter, “I hang out in a room with hormonal teenagers who are learning to control every impulse they have while I attempt to teach them life skills.”
According to online court records, Bucy pleaded not guilty to the charges. She was released from Summit County Jail after posting $50,000 bond. She is prohibited from having contact with juveniles other than her children.
Bucy’s attorney, Richard P. Kutuchief, did not comment on the allegations, but he tells PEOPLE, “Laura is a very dedicated educator. She is very caring about her position.”
