SoCal Teacher Surprises Students With New Female Identity
CHINO (CBS LA) — Students at Chino High School returned to school this week to find that their chemistry teacher looked very different and had a new name: Amanda Swager.
"It's just relaxing to be able to wake up in the morning and just be me," Swager told KCAL9's Crystal Cruz.
As Cruz reports, Swager grew up as a boy, Michael, but always knew there was something feminine about her. As an adult, she learned that she was actually genetically female and began transitioning.
