Teacher arrested: Sarah Lewis, a social studies and dance teacher from Utah, is accused of having sex with her 17-year-old male student 

A high school teacher from Utah has been arrested on suspicion she had sexual contact with a 17-year-old male student after plying the boy with vodka and beer.

Mother-of-one Sarah Lewis, 27, was taken into custody on Tuesday and booked into Utah County Jail on counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor and furnishing alcohol to a minor.

Lewis, who is married and has a young child, works as a social studies teacher and dance instructor at Landmark High School, an alternative school in Spanish Fork.

According to police, Lewis' alleged encounter with the male student took place in early January at her home in Payson.

Payson police Lt Bill Wright told the station KSL it was his understanding that Lewis' tryst with the teen was a one-time incident.

A police report cited by the Daily Herald stated that during their romp, Lewis served the underage boy vodka and beer.

The document also revealed that Lewis' sexual activities with the student were captured on video, although it’s unclear who recorded the footage.

The 27-year-old woman allegedly met the teen for sex at her home in Payson, which she shared with her husband and young child 

Officials with the Nebo School District learned of the allegations against Lewis on Monday after being contacted by the Payson Police Department and immediately placed her on administrative leave.

According to her LinkedIn page, Sarah Lewis is a 2012 graduate of Utah Valley University who has taught at Landmark High School for two-and-a-half years.

According to its website, Landmark has about 340 students enrolled in grades 10-12.

Lewis has been ordered by a judge to have no contact with the alleged victim. 

She is due back in court next Monday.
