About the Book

Updated Edition of Bestseller! "How to Handle Staff Misconduct has simplified the process with its step-by-step format and has removed a lot of the emotions that have previously gone into addressing staff misconduct issues. I′ve had occasions to put the steps into play and have found them to be logical and straightforward." Anne Hutcheson, Director of Special Education and Pupil Personnel Bellefonte Area School District, Pennsylvania "Lawrence and Vachon did an outstanding job of writing guidelines that deal with the core aspects of supervision and documentation without becoming embroiled in state law issues and differences. I wish that I had this book as a guideline when I became a principal. I would have used it to train new hires on my administrative team." Mary A. King, Director of High School Services Texas Association of Secondary School Principals What administrators must know about staff misbehavior and the steps to correct it Ever-changing laws regarding sexual harassment, teacher accountability, and safety in the workplace, combined with increasingly complex union contracts, have made the handling of staff misconduct a veritable minefield for novice and experienced administrators alike. Fortunately, this expanded and updated second edition of an indispensable resource will clarify all of the steps principals must take to ensure that their schools are run according to the policies and laws that govern them. In clearly delineated sections, How to Handle Staff Misconduct, Second Edition, offers strategies that include managing excessive tardiness, insubordination, misconduct requiring suspension, and even criminal behaviors. Each section includes an outline of principal responsibilities, and common errors that can interfere with a successful intervention. In addition, the authors demonstrate: How to use progressive discipline to fairly correct unwanted behaviors How to set up a school-level misconduct meeting Why just cause is a key defense against legal backlash How due process can avoid technical errors during a disciplinary action Why privacy is paramount Covering everything from the first day of school to the first sign of an infraction, this book guides administrators through all phases of investigation and documentation, and remains an essential resource for any principal or supervisor trying to keep students and staff focused on education.
