A Mass. elementary school teacher has been suspended after saucy shots of her modeling semi-naked were anonymously sent to her bosses.
Kaitlin Pearson, 23, is in hot water after racy images of her donning revealing bikinis and next-to-nothing sportswear were also sent to her local newspaper.
Alongside, a note read: “Can you believe that this girl was hired to work with special education children in the Fitchburg schools?!!”The 23-year-old – nicknamed Kaity – was temporarily booted, with full pay, from South Street Elementary School in Fitchburg on Friday.
An investigation is now being held as to whether her second job, which includes appearing at sports events in skimpy outfits, affects her ability to work with special education children.
Pearson has refused to comment on the situation, while a local newspaper is reporting mixed reactions from parents. Pearson, who has a long-term boyfriend, has refused to comment on her suspension.
But further pictures have emerged online that show her embracing other naked female models. She also appeared on the Sept. 2013 cover of Models Mania magazine.
Other images are on her Model Mayhem profile, where she specifically says she will not pose fully nude, and on her open Facebook page.
The Sentinel & Enterprise, which was sent the photographs, reports parents have had a mixed reaction to the pictures.
“You’re trying to be a role model for the kids,” parent Andy Saocedo told reporters, while another added: “She probably leaves work at work and her modeling career separate from her teaching career.”
