(Tulsa-AP) -- A former Claremore school administrator received a five-year probation term today for distributing a codeine-based pain killer.

Margaret Susan Ledbetter, who sold the drug to two undercover agents, must serve the first six months of probation under house arrest.

She pleaded guilty in August to selling 20 Lortab tablets to agents from the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics. Court records allege she also distributed 550 tablets of the tranquilizer Xanax.

Ledbetter was the director of special services for the Claremore school district.
