Workshops for Teachers
Teaching is one of the most heavily
regulated professions in this country. Teachers must
constantly be aware of and balance students’ rights,
state and federal regulations, local school district
policies and mandates, and their ethical responsibilities.
Meanwhile, many teachers are not made
aware of many of the legal frameworks in which they
operate. Many teachers don’t know their own rights or
the bounds of their students’ rights. Understanding
the laws that affect them empowers teachers by giving
them knowledge and makes them better teachers by helping
them better understand their obligations and rights.
