A South Carolina teacher has been arrested for preying on a 17-year-old high school football player.
Reagan Anderson, 27, faces two counts of sexual assault against a student at the private Holly Hill Academy, Fox News reports.
The married mother of two allegedly attacked the teen first on Oct. 22 on Bunch Ford Road and again on Oct. 28 in a parking lot outside a Pizza Hut, according to an arrest warrant.
Anderson is also accused of sending nude photos of the high school student on Snapchat.
A judge set her bond at $2,500 and told her not to have any contact with the victim or his family during Thursday’s hearing. She was released the same day with a GPS monitor.

During the hearing, the alleged victim’s mother blasted the teacher for “abusing” her son.
“A trusted coach, teacher and friend who abused our trust and violated her oath as an educator. She ruined our son’s life,” this distressed parent said in a statement to the court.
“He should be 100% focused on being a happy, football-playing young man, but this predator has robbed him of that ability.
“No young quarterback or athlete is safe in our community if this woman is free,” she continued.
Holly Hill Academy, located about 60 miles northwest of Charleston, is a small private Christian preparatory school with a total of about 300 students.
Headteacher Brandy Mullennax said in a letter to parents: ‘Holly Hilly Academy was made aware last week of allegations of an inappropriate relationship between a staff member and a student at the high school.’

According to Anderson’s LinkedIn page, she is currently a “stay-at-home mom looking for opportunities to help support my family and me at home.”
“I am very passionate about children and enjoy working with all ages,” her profile reads.
