A math teacher was arrested last week for having an inappropriate relationship with one of her students at a magnet school in Las Vegas.
Renee Rine, a teacher at West Career and Technical Academy, was arrested on Friday, and she’s been held without bond since then at the Clark County Detention Center.
She faces five counts including being a school employee in a position of authority engaging in sexual conduct with a pupil 16 or older, first-degree attempted kidnapping to engage in sex, lewdness with a child who is 14 or 15 years old, contact with a minor or mentally-ill person and child abuse or neglect.
The Clark County School District Police Department started investigating Rine when they heard about allegations she had inappropriate contact with a student. They were able to substantiate those claims.
Rine was first hired as a math teacher at the magnet school in August 2015.

Rine’s picture was quickly taken down from the school’s website, but DailyMail.com was able to access it by looking at a archived version of the webpage.
Rine is scheduled to make her first appearance at the Regional Justice Center on Tuesday morning at 7:30am
The school released this statement on Monday: ‘The safety of our students is the number one priority at West Career and Technical Academy. As always, we want to keep you informed of important issues happening within our school community.
‘We want to let you know that a teacher who has been assigned to our school was recently arrested by the Clark County School District Police Department regarding inappropriate behavior involving students. I wanted to let you know that the teacher has been removed from the campus and the school is continuing to work with law enforcement on their investigation.’
