Casey Scott, a teacher at a school in Florida, said she was given the sack for discussing her pansexual identity with students.
She was dismissed from Trafalgar Middle School in Cape Coral after an art class in March where students reportedly asked her about her sexuality.
Scott encouraged students to express their own identities through activities, such as drawing Pride flags, and explained what being pansexual is to them. “A discussion happened in class and because of that, now I’m fired,” she told NBC2.
She stuck some of them to her classroom door before being told to remove them by the school. Scott also confirmed that she threw them away and added: “They said it would be in the best interest if I got rid of them now.” The teacher was working at the school on a probationary basis and was apparently told not to return to the campus because her contract was being terminated.
