Teacher Who Made Headlines With Z-Cup Prosthetic Breasts Gets Police Escort as She Starts at New School

A Canadian high school teacher who generated controversy after wearing Z-cup prosthetic breasts in the classroom received a police escort as she returned to teaching Tuesday — this time at a new school.

An unmarked police vehicle led Kayla Lemieux's Mazda SUV to the Nora Frances Henderson Secondary School, where she was scheduled to attend a planning session with other teachers ahead of the new school year, according to the New York Post. Lemieux, 40, reportedly parked behind the school, away from other staffers.

At least two picketers appeared near the school Tuesday to protest Lemieux's hiring as three security guards kept the premises secure, the Toronto Sun reported.

Lemieux's hiring at the school is already creating disruptions for parents and students, according to a memo from the principal. School officials are reportedly taking special precautions to protect students as they return to class in the fall, including by assigning each child a particular door to enter and exit through.

That's because the school where Lemieux previously worked as a wood shop teacher, Oakville-Trafalgar High School outside of Toronto, received several bomb and gun threats after photos of Lemieux wearing her prosthetic breasts during class began circulating online and created a media frenzy.

Lemieux reportedly had long hair and feminine clothing — in addition to the prosthetic breasts — at Oakville-Trafalgar.

On Tuesday, she was seen with facial hair and sunglasses — and without her blonde wig or prosthetic breasts.

Lemieux previously told the New York Post she was born intersex.

Lemieux had previously claimed that her breasts were real — the natural result of hormone replacement therapy as well as a sensitivity to estrogen. She also claimed that photos of her without the large breasts were actually of a different person entirely.

Parents at Lemieux's previous school spoke to the Post about her new appearance. “It is infuriating. We had a year of complete chaos," parent Celina Close told the Post.

Close said parents were told Lemieux's outsized breasts were real, but the new photos reveal that they are prosthetic and can be removed.

Lemieux was placed on paid leave in March as school officials investigated whether they were allowed to issue a new dress code policy that would require teachers to wear "appropriate and professional" attire while at work.

Students are expected to return to class on Wednesday, per the Sun.
