A Texas art teacher who was placed on administrative leave after talking about 'her future wife' in class hopes her settlement with a school district will change the lives of other LGBTQ people.

A Texas art teacher who was placed on administrative leave after talking about "her future wife" in class hopes her settlement with a school district will change the lives of other LGBTQ people.

The two-time teacher of the year was giving a welcome back to school presentation in August 2017 to her class when she showed a photo of her and her then-fiancee dressed as characters from the movie "Finding Nemo," according to court documents obtained by CNN. Bailey taught for 10 years at Charlotte Anderson Elementary School in Arlington, Smith said. The teacher was transferred to Lake Ridge High School, which is in the same school district, at the end of the 2018 school year. She is still at Lake Ridge."The Mansfield ISD School Board has voted on an agreement to settle the case in question in an amicable and beneficial manner," Donald Williams, associate superintendent of communications and marketing, said in a statement.

Beyond the mandatory LGBTQ training, optional training will be offered to administrators, staff, teachers or parents who would like to attend, according to settlement documents.
