Ethics and Confrontation: The Politics of Decision Making
Sawyer, Emmett; Wegner, Scott; Moseman, Gerald
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v9 n4 p11-20 2006
This case study explores the politics and ethics surrounding a likely breach of school policy and possible breach of law. Students will be asked to identify key legal, ethical, and political issues in a unique scenario involving complex community issues, a split board, and unknown levels of support from superiors. At stake are employment status of administrators, community harmony, school climate, and potentially, student achievement. (Contains 1 table.)
