MANDAN, N.D. (AP) - A high school teacher in Mandan is accused of having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student.

Thirty-five-year-old Amanda Kolosky is charged with corruption of a minor, a Class C felony. She is a special education teacher at Mandan High School.

Police say they received a report from a private counselor on Wednesday that said a male student had formed a relationship with Kolosky. The student allegedly told the counselor he had sex with Kolosky and had been texting her.

Police say the teacher admitted she had kissed the student and performed a sexual act with him.

Superintendent Mike Bitz tells the Bismarck Tribune Kolosky has been placed on indefinite administrative leave.

An attorney for the teacher is not listed.
