The educator allegedly showed photos of her naked breasts to female students during a discussion of body dysmorphia. Helayne Seidman<\/p>\nA twisted teaching assistant at a Brooklyn junior high school flashed photos of her private parts to three teen girls \u2014 and showed them a raunchy sex video of herself, the Special Commissioner for Investigation for NYC schools found.<\/p>\n
Paraprofessional Amber Barnes\u2019 revolting conduct happened during a \u201cGirls Empowerment Movement\u201d meeting in November 2022 at\u00a0JHS 218 in East New York \u2014 and only came to light because Barnes\u2019 son, a seventh-grader at the school,\u00a0was caught showing snaps of the masturbating woman to other boys in a locker room, according to the SCI report obtained by The Post.<\/p>\n
When the boys in the locker room reported his behavior to school officials, one of the girls who had seen the mom\u2019s X-rated images was present and blurted out, \u201cLike mother, like son.\u201d<\/p>\n

That led school officials to dig deeper into Barnes, 41, and alleged her misbehavior with the three girls, the report said.<\/p>\n
The girls recalled that while \u201cbody dysmorphia\u201d was being discussed during a GEM meeting, Barnes assured the group it\u2019s normal for females to have one breast larger than the other \u2014 and then flashed her bare bosom pics as proof, according to the SCI report. <\/p>\n
The girls vividly recalled to investigators that Barnes\u2019 nipples were pierced and that there was a \u201cgreenish\u201d tattoo on one of them in the shape of a \u201cstar or a diamond,\u201d said the report.<\/p>\n
During the GEM meeting, one of the students told Barnes she once cut class and went home to have sex with another student \u2013 and that the act was taped and shared with other students.<\/p>\n
Barnes then told the girl \u201cnot to\u00a0be embarrassed\u201d because she, too, had her own sex tape, which she then shockingly shared with the trio, according to the report.<\/p>\n
During the probe, two school staffers told investigators Barnes showed the same pics and video to them. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Barnes, who was assigned to the school in 2014, denied displaying the nudie pics or a sex video to students. She claimed she was ratted out by the three girls as payback for\u00a0catching them \u201chigh on edibles.\u201d<\/p>\n
Barnes\u2019 \u201cconduct was unprofessional, improper and egregious,\u201d said the Feb. 3 SCI report which recommended her firing. \u201cAs such, she has no place working in and around students.\u201d<\/p>\n
Barnes in March 2023 was suspended without pay from the $50,000-a-year post pending the SCI probe, and no longer works for NYC\u2019s public school system, officials said.<\/p>\n
She was also arrested and charged with three counts of endangering the welfare of a child. However, the criminal case was \u201cdismissed\u00a0and sealed\u00a0on speedy trial grounds,\u201d the SCI said.<\/p>\n
\u201cStudent safety is non-negotiable at NYC Public Schools, said Chyann Tull, a spokesperson for the city\u2019s Department of Education. <\/p>\n
