Sheena Sittner, a 42-year-old substitute teacher in suburban St. Louis, Missouri, faced termination from her position after her OnlyFans account was discovered. Sittner, who worked through the staffing agency Kelly Education for the Parkway School District, stated she created the adult content account to manage student loans and costs related to her criminology studies.

Following complaints about her online activities, Kelly Education issued a notice of suspension pending termination and instructed Sittner to refrain from contacting schools or districts. Sittner expressed concern that these restrictions would interfere with her rights as a parent, specifically her ability to volunteer at her youngest child’s school. Both Kelly Education and the Parkway School District clarified that Sittner was not a direct employee of the district.

Sittner was ultimately dismissed in September, an action the employer cited as necessary for “student safety and well-being.” Sittner highlighted a significant income disparity, noting that while she earned approximately $140 per day as a teacher, she could often earn that same amount in a single hour on the adult content platform. She argued that low educator salaries drive professionals toward online content creation to meet financial obligations.

Following her dismissal, Sittner and her husband transitioned to producing content for the platform as a full-time occupation, seeing a significant increase in revenue due to public interest. Legal experts have noted a rise in similar cases, pointing to the increasing use of facial recognition and AI software by employers to monitor employees' online presence.
