Download or read book The Principal s Quick Reference Guide to School Law written by Dennis R. Dunklee and published by Corwin. This book was released on 2002 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly all school administrators have had a course in school law. However, most school law courses end without helping the principal translate school law and policy into education procedures and practice. This book helps close that gap, and places principals in a better position to maintain a safe school and to be on the offensive in litigation avoidance and conflict resolution. Most legal actions brought against school principals are not based on the areas of education leadership or knowledge of curriculum. Principals who find themselves defendants in court often got there because they didn't know the relevant law or practice sound management based on an understanding of existing court decisions. This book helps principals understand, and gives them a stronger foundation for the management of risk. The Principal's Quick-Reference Guide to School Law is designed so that the school administrator can quickly find and identify important legal points to consider during decision-making processes, when such decisions may have legal consequences.To further assist in that process, the authors use straightforward, non-technical language and follow a standard format in presenting pertinent information.

Download or read book School Law Primer written by Daniel N Johnson Ed D and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-11-03 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to be a useful tool for school administrators. Every day, school leaders make hundreds of decisions with far-ranging implications. They manage millions of dollars of scarce resources as well as assume major responsibility for the health, safety, and security of significant numbers of children and adults. For school administrators, legal issues and challenges are often problems to be reacted to-their modus operandi is frequently damage control. Yet all educational leaders are responsible even before an issue arises to understand, internalize, and take appropriate actions based on wise judgment and a sound legal foundation. Leaders must not only minimize the risks to the organization and its individuals but also create a healthy, proactive climate for all. Prevention, awareness, anticipation, analysis, and action are steps for establishing a positive legal environment as well as sustaining effective educational leadership. The purpose of the School Law Primer is to provide practicing and future school administrators with a clearer understanding of many of the critical legal issues facing educational leaders. Whether these issues are based in the U.S. Constitution, state laws, or local district and building policies and procedures, they serve to provide a framework for the work of school administrators. The School Law Primer is not intended to provide a comprehensive or in-depth perspective but rather a useful overview that will help inform you and your work. It is intended to stimulate you to become legally literate. The resources referenced provide much more depth and scope. You are encouraged to visit these references for advice and guidance in approaching the challenging legal issues you all will face. A formational premise of the School Law Primer is that solid and effective legal practices are interrelated with solid and effective administrative practices. Good legal thinking is based on sound judgment and wisdom when making decisions regarding students and adults as well as when approaching difficult issues. Good legal thinking is also good prevention thinking. All too often, because of inadequate information, lack of forethought, or incomplete work, thoughtful problem prevention becomes costly problem solving or, even worse, crisis intervention. Administrators are continually being called on to decipher the rights of the individuals - students, staff, parents and the community - as they frequently intersect with the obligations and requirements of maintaining a safe, non threatening, and productive school environment. While this book has an emphasis on Oregon Law, it can be useful for any administrator guided by best practice.

Primarily written for school administrators and teachers to learn the most important points of the cases and how the cases will impact their practices, this new edition covers a wider range of legal topics, takes a much more in-depth approach to discussing the cases presented, and cites many more current cases that are relevant to practitioners than any other school law textbook in comparison.

Download or read book Education Law written by Michael Imber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education Law, 5th Edition is organized around the belief that students need to read court cases to understand the subtlety and richness of the law, but for legal neophytes, cases without discussion and interpretation are often too difficult to comprehend.

A companion website with materials for students and instructors, including links to full cases, a glossary of key concepts, and discussion questions to help students further engage with the content.
