A Missouri high school teacher says she has been placed on leave after officials discovered that she was performing on a pornography website to supplement her salary.
Brianna Coppage, 28, who taught English at St. Clair High School, says her teaching days are probably over, but she acknowledged she knew the risks.
Coppage told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that she was put on leave on Wednesday after being interviewed by two administrators. Her access to school email and other software was suspended while the district investigates, she said.
“It was kind of always like this cloud hanging over my head, like I never knew when I would be discovered,” Coppage said in an interview. “Then, about two weeks ago, my husband and I were told that people were finding out about it. So I knew this day was coming.”

You know, if these schools are going to refuse to pay teachers enough to live on, maybe they shouldn't be so uptight about where those teachers get their supplemental income from. 😒
i bet that school district is soooo embarrassed that they pay so incredibly poorly that their teachers have to sell their bodies…
M… maybe we could try paying teachers enough so that they don't have to open an OF to make ends meet?
What frustrates me is schools are frequently very willing to spend money on sports related expenses. A librarian left a a New Hampshire school $4 million dollars. They spent $100,000 on the library and $1 million on a new scoreboard (source In the vast majority of states the highest paid employee is a football coach (source. Local governments don't really care about education and because local governments are typically elected to me that means American citizens don't really care about education either.
That’s not a great example of your point. The school you’re talking about is my alma mater.
That librarian was neurodivergent and left his savings to the university at which he worked with no specific restrictions.
The university execs wanted to use the money on sports, and directed the advancement department to create a narrative to support that decision. They found a mention he enjoyed watching sports at the nursing home during the last months of his life.
Close friends said he wasn’t interested in sports at all - he loved numbers and statistics, and at the end of his life at a nursing home the only numbers he could get to were baseball statistics. He couldn’t care less about the sport, he just liked the math.
UNH rewrote his life and personality to justify spending his gift on athletics.

That's a frustrating read but I'm glad I got to see a glimpse of the man who was just a random bit of trivia rattling around in my head. I'm going to try to remember Robert Morin as a kind man who loved learning and generosity. To me those are wonderful traits. And I'm willing to bet that the name Robert Morin will live on in that library for generations to come. Thanks for posting this.
Even sadder considering UNH is known for having a strong teaching program, whereas no one ever talks about their sports.
Many Americans don't recognize the importance of paying attention to local politics, even when they care about education.
It's worse than that. A lot of school boards are run by right-wing assholes because a lot of Americans are very concerned about education in the sense that they want to prevent children from learning anything about how the world actually works.
Americans only care about education if they can win at it
Also stop making us pay for our own supplies. We can’t write off more than $300 of class materials on our taxes too - maybe she could add some pencils to her routine to make them a legitimate business expense.
I can't fathom this is real. The US education system is destroyed in that case.
I get $300 a year for classroom supplies, etc. can’t spend it on xyz. Can’t buy a personal printer but can buy ink with it. Can’t buy candy/food/etc unless it is tied to a specific lesson plan where that is integral to the lesson and not simply a reward. Lot of it goes to napkins/tissues/pencils/etc. for students.
You get $300?! We get $150…
Yeah I mean to be honest this is in an area of florida which doesn’t 100% suck ass money wise for teachers at least.
She taught English to freshmen and sophomores and made about $42,000 last year, according to the newspaper’s public pay database. She said she’s earned an additional $8,000 to $10,000 per month performing on OnlyFans.
The fact that teachers have to do porn to survive is telling that conservative society is fucked.
The sad part is conservatives will question why she couldn't live off 42,000 a year!
Because the conservative boomers are all retired, with fully owned homes, and don't know what things cost these days.
disgusting where would one find this content? solely to support the lady. hypothetically
Only 59 videos posted to the page and making $8-10k per month?! She must do a ton of private custom shit
So when do the school administrators get fired for looking at porn online?
That's disgusting! Where?!
You know what they say. Once you've seen one boob, you want to see the rest of them.
Missourah: That's disgusting, we want to see students on OnlyFans, not teachers.
If one wanted to view this material to form their own opinion, where would one go to do this? Obviously this would be only for the purpose of confirming that these allegations are accurate and also deciding whether or not this constitutes any sort of suspendable offense.
Seems appropriate…

Hell yeah. We should put all attractive teachers on leave in fact, since high schoolers have a hard enough time navigating society without the added complication of an attractive authority figure thrown in.
In fact, may as well put the ugly ones on leave as well, since those might be some people’s preferences as well.
Eunuchs and robots are out, again might be a kink. Self led learning should go too, since they may be a narcissist and get off on the thought of themselves being in charge.
May as well not teach them, since they may have a learning kink.
I see a huge problem. Since it didn't involve the school. Or violate anyone's consent. The school should keep their mouth fucking shut unless they have something to actually criticize her for that's relevant. Such as her ability to teach. Which isn't what they're doing.
But as a Missourian our state embarrassing us must mean it's a day ending in Y.
Prude stuck up mf opinion u got there.
