A former Spring Grove Elementary principal who pleaded guilty to committing a sex act with a 16-year-old girl was sentenced to one year in prison and 18 months of extended supervision Wednesday morning.
Daniel Markofski, 48, pleaded guilty in September to two felony counts of exposing a child to harmful material and a misdemeanor for committing a sex act with a child 16 or older. He appeared before Judge John Franke this morning in Milwaukee County Court with his attorney for sentencing, according to court records.
Markofski was charged in April, after police said they found him watching pornography with two teenage girls at a Super-8 Motel in Glendale, Wis. The girls, now ages 16 and 17, were in various states of undress, according to police reports.
After Markofski completes his prison and supervision sentence, he will be required to register as a sex offender for the following 15 years.
Markofski was removed from his post as principal at Spring Grove Elementary following his arrest in April. After the incident, Nippersink District 2 officials denied Markofski's resignation request and fired him.
In June, the district school board tightened hiring policies by requiring new employees in the district to pass a mandatory drug test. When police discovered Markofski and the two girls, they were investigating a marijuana odor coming from their motel room.
