SYRACUSE -- A former Syracuse school board member will spend the next five years on probation for stealing thousands of dollars from a local church.

Kim Rohadfox-Ceaser learned her sentence Tuesday morning in Onondaga County Court. She was also ordered to pay $2,580.14 in restitution.

Rohadfox-Ceaser plead guilty to one count of grand larceny. She admits to stealing a few thousand dollars from the Tucker Missionary Baptist Church on Oakwood Avenue in Syracuse over nearly six years.

Prosecutors say she charged faked invoices from office supply stores and charged purchases to the church's credit cards. Investigators say the thefts happened between April of 2004 and January of 2009.

Rohadfox-Ceaser was president of the Syracuse board of education in 2009.
