Book Synopsis When Student-on-student Sexual Harassment Triggers School District Liability Under by : Joe Salmieri (III)
Download or read book When Student-on-student Sexual Harassment Triggers School District Liability Under written by Joe Salmieri (III) and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prohibits sex discrimination in education, including K-12 institutions and colleges/universities. The United States Supreme Court has held that Title IX holds schools liable for sex discrimination, including sexual harassment and sexual assault. In the landmark case, Davis v. Monroe County Board of Education, the Supreme Court identified the criteria in which a school district can be held liable for student-on-student sexual harassment under Title IX. The Supreme Court's criterion is presented in the form of a three-prong test, and all prongs must be satisfied for liability to exist. The first prong is whether or not the harassment was so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that the victim was denied access to an educational opportunity. The second prong is whether an official who had the authority to stop the harassment had actual notice of the harassment. Finally, the third prong is whether an official who did have both the authority to stop the harassment and actual notice remained deliberately indifferent. The goal of this study was to analyze post-Davis case law to determine how and when a school can be found liable for student-on-student sexual harassment. This analysis can help school administrators and school boards to develop policies and practices to help prevent Title IX liability for student-on-student sexual harassment.

Book Synopsis Student-Generated Sexual Harassment in Secondary Schools by : Roberta Wetzel
Download or read book Student-Generated Sexual Harassment in Secondary Schools written by Roberta Wetzel and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2000-08-30 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wetzel and Brown examine the extent to which student-to-student sexual harassment exists in secondary schools today. They provide evidence that student sexual harassment is not only currently widespread, it is also unconsciously and consciously condoned by school authorities who are charged with providing a safe and effective educational environment. After reviewing the state of sexual harassment in American high schools, the authors provide the best practices for increasing awareness of what behaviors constitute sexual harassment as well as alert readers to the negative impact on both boys and girls, where sexual harassment is most likely to take place, and ways students can become more socially adept. A template for developing a school district policy is presented as are strategies for educating and dissemination. Practical and specific strategies for parents, teachers, and students are presented in detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2014, the federal government addressed the issue of student victimization through the expansion of Title IX. Every school district, college, and university receiving federal funding is accountable to reduce and ultimately eliminate sexual harassment and sexual violence in their settings. The requirements are extensive and apply to other forms of discrimination as well, and the consequences for noncompliance for students and schools are significant. Yet at this time, less than 1% of schools nationwide are in compliance, putting their students and their schools at additional risk. Ultimately, Title IX compliance will help both students and schools, and so will this book.

Book Synopsis Sexual Exploitation in Schools by : Robert J. Shoop
Download or read book Sexual Exploitation in Schools written by Robert J. Shoop and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to identify and prevent sexual exploitation of students in your school! Though most schools are safe environments for students, research shows that sexual abuse of children at all levels is on the rise. Recent media attention has captured the public's growing concern about the number of cases involving boys molested by adult females. Nationally recognized risk management expert and author Robert J. Shoop was recently quoted in USA Today (November 30, 2005), noting that "In the past 18 months, at least 25 cases nationwide involved female teachers molesting students." He has also addressed the topic of sexual exploitation as a guest on CNN, The Today Show, ABC's 20/20, ESPN's Outside the Lines, and other independent television talk shows. In his new book, Shoop identifies the early warning signs of sexual abuse in schools. Based on interviews, newspaper reports, journal articles, court records, and personal experiences gained from 25 years of consulting with school districts in the areas of harassment, abuse, risk management and negligence, this book demonstrates the critical need to implement strategies so students are protected while also learning how to protect themselves. Shoop's two-fold objectives are: How to spot sexual exploitation and what early warning signs to look for and How to stop sexual exploitation--actions that schools and parents can take to prevent sexual abuse, and how to respond promptly and appropriately if it occurs Sexual Exploitation in Schools prepares educators to manage one of the most difficult and troubling issues in our public and private schools. Explanations are provided concerning the legal context, consequences and pathology of sexual exploitation, district and employee rights, conducting an investigation, and steps educators and parents can take so that students will be safe in their learning environment, leading to a successful and healthy future.
Book Synopsis Sexual Harassment and Bullying by : Susan L. Strauss
Download or read book Sexual Harassment and Bullying written by Susan L. Strauss and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullying in schools is often discussed, but sexual harassment in schools, and how it differs from bullying is often overlooked. In fact, though, sexual harassment (committed both by fellow students and school personnel) is more common and yet more easily and quickly dismissed by those involved, though its consequences for the victim can be profound. This book provides parents, teachers, school officials, and others with a framework comparing and contrasting sexual harassment and bullying as they relate to the behavior, laws, and impact on children. The author describes the responsibility of the school district and how parents and other adults can navigate the schools' policies, barriers, and responsibilities. She argues that children should not be subjected to bullying OR sexual harassment, that it is the school's responsibility to make the harassment or bullying stop, and that parents and other caring adults often need to be involved and advocate for the child, even against resistance from those in the school system. Throughout the book the author uses examples of actual cases that have made it to the courts and have been precedent setting and cases in which she has been involved as an expert witness or as a consultant. Resources for readers are also provided at the end of the book.
Book Synopsis Evolving Legal Standards Pertaining to Sexual Harassment by : Martha McCarthy
Download or read book Evolving Legal Standards Pertaining to Sexual Harassment written by Martha McCarthy and published by Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few topics are receiving as much attention in the courts as sexual harassment. For example, the U.S. Supreme Court has delivered five case decisions since spring 1998. Three of the cases involved sexual harassment in employment, one involved teacher-to-student harassment, and one involved student-to-student (peer) harassment. These Supreme Court decisions resolved several important issues that had generated a range of lower court opinions during the past few years, but also raised concerns regarding the consequences of the new legal standards in terms of school district liability. This summary provides an overview of the evolving law governing sexual harassment in the workplace and in schools, with particular emphasis on the recent Supreme Court decisions and their implications for public school policies and practices. This report concludes with excerpts from "Sexual Harassment Guidance: Harassment of Students by School Employees, Other Students, or Third Parties," issued by the Department of Education Office for Civil Rights. (Contains 37 endnotes, 20 references, and 8 resource websites.) (RT)

Book Synopsis Law and American Education by : Robert Palestini
Download or read book Law and American Education written by Robert Palestini and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2012-04-13 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition expands coverage on such topics as the law and students with disabilities, confidentiality, sexual harassment, student searches and tuition vouchers. It also includes some new topics such as bullying, copyright law, and the law and the internet. Both public and nonpublic school educators are aware that courts, over the last several decades, have played an increasingly significant role in defining school policy. Decisions in such areas as school desegregation, prayer, public school financing, student rights, collective bargaining, students with disabilities, sexual harassment and other personnel issues attest to the extent and importance of judicial influence. It is important, therefore, that teachers and administrators have a least a rudimentary knowledge and understanding of school law and how it affect their day-to-day classroom activities. There is a sizable body of school law with which educators should be familiar if they wish to conduct themselves in a legally acceptable manner. Those educators who “fly by the seat of their pants” may be in difficulty if sufficient thought is not given to the legal implications of their decisions and conduct. This text provides introductory material for those educators interested in K-12 educational issues, and who have little or no background or knowledge in school law. This book takes a case brief approach to the study of school law. Case briefs are the means by which students of the law summarize cases to facilitate learning and analysis. This book’s purpose is to provide those who are involved and interested in education with a rudimentary knowledge base for making educationally sound decisions within the legal framework of our nation. Having such knowledge may preclude, or at least minimize, an educator’s exposure to liability. On the other hand, this book is not intended to scare educators into inaction. Many of the most effective learning activities carry with them a certain degree of risk. Field trips and laboratory experiments come immediately to mind. The knowledge obtained from this book is not intended to end the taking of field trips and the conducting of laboratory experiments. It is intended to be a guide to conducting these valuable activities in a responsible manner that will minimize the educator’s exposure to liability.
