A high school teacher from Missouri, who was placed on administrative leave due to the discovery of her OnlyFans account, has decided to leave the education field completely.
In late September, Brianna Coppage, a 28-year-old teacher at St. Clair High School, was put on administrative leave.
The district launched an investigation after discovering that the teacher had been sharing inappropriate content online, according to Kyle Kruse, the superintendent of St. Clair R-XIII School District.
On Coppage’s Twitter page, which showcases her work on OnlyFans, she proudly claims to be “THAT teacher” and confidently states that she is one of the top .03% earners on the platform, known for its predominantly explicit visual content. This is an improvement from her previous claim of being in the top 4% just a week ago.
She told The Messenger that it has definitely been a journey, and the past few days have been quite a roller coaster, completely flipping their life around.
According to The Missourian, Coppage stated that she earned $6,000 within 24 hours after her story gained viral attention. The outlet reported that before this, she had been earning $8,000 per month on the site.
The Change.org petition, which seeks to reinstate Coppage in her job, has garnered over 2,000 signatures; however, it seems that the teacher has no intention of coming back.
She told the Riverfront Times that she knew she wasn’t going to return to education. She explained that she had two options: to run and hide or to embrace the situation.
Ultimately, she had financial obligations and a family to support, so choosing to embrace the situation was not a difficult decision for her.
She informed The Messenger that she had already resigned from the school, which is located just outside of St. Louis. She has been employed as a communication arts teacher at the school since August 2022.
Coppage stated to the publication that she does not desire to engage in conflict with the school district. She simply longs for tranquility. She acknowledged that returning would inevitably result in a significant change, thus making it the most favorable choice.
She stated that she wanted the education of students to return to normal because they deserve to have a great year.
Coppage’s decision to create her OnlyFans page was motivated by her teacher salary, which was just over $42,000 for the 2022-23 school year, as reported by The Missourian.
According to the National Education Association, Missouri was ranked 47th in the nation in terms of average teacher salary, with teachers earning approximately $13,000 less than the national average.
The Missouri National Education Association reported that the average salary for teachers in the state during the 2022-23 school year was $53,512.
She informed the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that she maintained a distinct separation between her OnlyFans account and her career as a teacher, although she acknowledged the creation of the page carried some degree of risk.
