A DISGRACED elementary school teacher wept in court as she admitted to luring and kissing her 11-year-old student.
Madison Bergmann, 25, sobbed into a crumpled tissue as she pleaded guilty Monday to one count of child enticement and two counts of sexual misconduct by school staff.

The former teacher from Wisconsin confessed in court after months of reportedly bombarding the pupil with thousands of explicit texts.
Several other serious charges were tossed as part of a plea deal, according to court records obtained by the New York Post.
These included first-degree sexual assault of a child and using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime.
Bergmann, who used to teach at River Crest Elementary School, had her twisted secret allegedly unravelled when the boy’s mum overheard the pair talking on the phone.
After checking his phone, the parents reportedly discovered lewd messages detailing classroom encounters during lunch and after school.
Bergmann allegedly told the child how much she enjoyed him touching her and “making out.”
Police later said they found a secret folder in her classroom with the boy’s name and handwritten notes about their kisses.
The victim’s enraged dad stormed into the school with printouts of the disturbing texts, according to investigators.
Earlier hearings revealed the shocking scale of the alleged abuse.
School resource officer Traci Hall testified that Bergmann and the boy swapped a whopping 33,000 messages.
Many were reportedly sexual — discussing touching, kissing, and the teacher’s arousal in class.
Some notes allegedly read: “I love you, want to kiss you, you turn me on, and I am obsessed with you.”
Bergmann was arrested in May, just three months before her planned July wedding.
The ceremony was abruptly cancelled after the allegations surfaced.
Her defence attorney has previously claimed prosecutors “overcharged” her.

Attorney Joseph Tamburino said: “There is never any language where she says, ‘I want to have sex with you or that he says ‘I want you to do this with me.’
“They talk a lot about kissing, and lips, and cheeks, and touching legs. They also talk about some sexual issues, obviously, about a woman’s body and a man’s body.
“But nothing like, ‘this is what I want you to do to me,’ or ‘this is what I will do to you.’”
A judge disagreed, saying detectives had shown enough probable cause for felony charges to move forward.
Bergmann is set to be sentenced this year on December 22.
