Mass. teacher's aide placed on leave over racy modeling photos says she's a good role model
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A Massachusetts teacher's aide briefly placed on leave when the school district found out about her second career as a lingerie model says she thinks she's a good example for her students.
In her first public statements, 23-year-old Kaitlin Pearson said in broadcast interviews that she's a college graduate who got good grades.
She says she her special needs students at a Fitchburg elementary school didn't know about her second career, and they wouldn't care because they are more interested in dinosaurs.

She says she loves both careers.
