A New York public school teacher was suspended Tuesday with pay after using a “genderbread” person handout to explain LGBTQ terms to middle school students, one parent discussed the situation over Facebook live video Sunday.

Jacqueline Hall, a health teacher at Cambridge Central School who is suspected of teaching students about being transgender, was suspended Tuesday. Hall attempted to teach seventh-graders about gender through the use of a “genderbread” person handout, which caused an outcry from parents, reported Fox News.

Hall was suspended after Sirell Fiel, a parent of a 7th grader, notified the school that his 11-year-old son brought home a packet discussing gender identity, reported WRGB Albany. Hall also brought in a member of the Pride Center of the Capital Region, an LGBTQ group for 7th and 10th graders. The speaker gave the 7th graders a four-page handout that gave definitions on homophobia, intersex, polyamory, pansexual, bisexual and cisgender.
