Catherine Champon, 59, is facing charges of grand theft and exploitation of the elderly.
According to a Broward Sheriff's Office report, Champon is a teacher at Village Elementary School in Sunrise.
District officials said Champon, a first-grade teacher, became a full-time teacher in December 2001 after working as a substitute for about three years. Her employment status is pending the outcome of the criminal investigation.
Champon befriended the elderly woman by driving her places and eventually obtained an ATM card and personal identification number linked to her bank account, the report said.

School teacher? Add this profession to the list of possible predators...
Predators work in every profession.
I'm shocked! She was my daughters 1st grade teacher. Such a nice lady I'm hoping everything works out for her. And she realizes what she did was wrong. Good luck
Hey anon I understand your compassion but save it for someone who deserves it who knows how many others were victimized by this school teacher who wasn't starving by her appearance. Predators and their Prey wearing costumes beware.
