Irwin pleaded guilty last month to a felony charge of aggravated assault and a misdemeanor charge of sexual imposition via a bill of information.
As News Center 7 previously reported, he was originally indicted in March 2024 on two counts of felony sexual battery.
Irwin was employed by the district as a network administrator at Fairmont High School approximately 11 to 12 years ago when he and the student, who was 18 at the time, were involved in an inappropriate relationship.
The district confirmed last year that he had resigned from his position on March 12, 2024.
