Best Interests of the Student presents both a theoretical model for guiding educators as they confront legal and ethical dilemmas in their schools, as well as highly accessible and annotated court cases for exploration. Stefkovich introduces an ethical decision-making model that focuses on strategies for determining what actions are in the "best interests of the student," and demonstrates the application of this theoretical model for examining legal and ethical dimensions of court cases. Discussion questions at the end of each case encourage readers to examine issues from differing viewpoints, helping them to become more self-reflective school leaders who can effectively address legal dilemmas in their own contexts. This important text is a valuable resource for both aspiring and practicing school administrators and leaders.
This thoroughly revised edition features:
An entirely new chapter focusing on issues surrounding technology, specifically bullying, harassment, and "sexting"
13 new legal cases to reflect recent developments in school law, including issues of free speech, teacher accountability, and school policies
A continued focus on preparing leaders to meet the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) ethics standard
Jacqueline Stefkovich is Professor in the Department of Education Policy Studies at the Pennsylvania State University, USA.
