Reiner, a teacher at Rancocas Valley Regional High School, was taken into custody Tuesday at the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office in Mount Holly. She is being held in the Atlantic County Jail in Mays Landing, which houses Burlington County's female inmates.
The investigation began last week after district officials approached the prosecutor's office with information they had received concerning a possible inappropriate relationship between Reiner and the student.
Officials said an investigation revealed that the contact happened in December 2018 in Mount Holly and Lumberton.
