Journal of Research on Leadership Education, v15 n2 p150-163 Jun 2020
Educational leaders are faced with multiple ethical decisions every day. This article presents the Values-Issue-Action (VIA) Model as a tool for developing ethical decisions in K-12 schools. The model is presented with three scenarios from K-12 education to practice using the model into practice. The model can be used by current school leaders and those in higher education programs developing future K-12 leaders. The model can also be used in school and district professional development to have leaders examine ethical dilemmas they face daily.
