A married former Rhode Island high school gym teac A married former Rhode Island high school gym teacher has been indicted on felony sex assault charges after prosecutors say she engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a teenage student. Alisha Crins, 39, who previously taught physical education at Ponaganset High School in Glocester, was charged with two counts of third-degree sexual assault, the Rhode Island Attorney General’s Office announced. Authorities allege the misconduct occurred between April 1 and June 30, 2024, and involved a minor student. According to court documents, Crins allegedly tracked down the sophomore’s phone number under the guise of asking him to help with work while she was on vacation. Messages between the two quickly turned “flirty,” investigators say, with Crins allegedly telling the teen he “looked good” and asking about wearing his jersey at a pep rally. By the time the student was 17, prosecutors say the exchanges had escalated to sexual content. Crins allegedly sent sexual photos and videos and later met the teen near her home, where she kissed him inside his car. “I can’t believe I’m going to do this,” she allegedly told the teen. “You can’t tell anybody.” Weeks later, she is accused of straddling the student in the backseat and sexually assaulting him. Investigators say the two discussed having sex once he turned 18, but it never happened according to Crins. Crins allegedly admitted to exchanging messages containing “sexual innuendoes.” The former student, who graduated last spring, filed a complaint with Rhode Island State Police in October, triggering the criminal investigation. Crins resigned from the Foster-Glocester Regional School District on Oct. 1, 2025. In a statement, the district said it is cooperating with authorities and referred all further inquiries to state police. She is scheduled to be arraigned March 18 in Providence County Superior Court. #rhodeisland #newportbuzz
