ED506 Chapter 7 Reading Questions 1.
Read the case study “That’s Not Fair!” and subsequent
discussion in the textbook. What are the school’s options in resolving this case? Discuss any difference you see between what is “legal” and what is “right.” Where should this balance fall? Be sure to cite case law as appropriate. In resolving the case presented in the scenario "That's Not Fair!", the school's options revolve around prioritizing the safety and well-being of students while also upholding disciplinary policies. Firstly, the school must address the immediate safety concerns of Aaron, who has been subjected to severe bullying, by implementing anti-bullying measures and providing him with necessary support services. Additionally, Principal Armbruster's dismissive response to Aaron's situation must be addressed, ensuring that school staff understand the gravity of bullying and take appropriate action. Moreover, Megan's actions, motivated by a desire to protect her friend, should be recognized and supported, rather than met with punitive measures. Restorative justice practices offer an alternative to suspension and expulsion, fostering dialogue and accountability among all parties involved. While the school has legal obligations, it must balance these with ethical considerations, prioritizing the safety and well-being of students above all else. This approach necessitates a nuanced understanding of both legal precedents and the moral imperative to create a safe and inclusive school environment. 2.
How can the threat assessment process serve to guide the school district’s response in cases of zero-tolerance and school/student safety? The threat assessment process helps schools deal with safety issues and zero-tolerance policies in a structured way. It has two main parts: first, officials collect evidence to consider other punishments besides just suspending or expelling students. If a threat seems serious, they do a thorough investigation involving legal authorities and counseling resources, while still sticking to the initial suspension decision. This process helps schools handle incidents better by looking into threats early, taking action to keep students safe, and involving different experts to make sure everything is done legally and safely. By keeping an eye on safety and planning ahead, schools can prevent violence, keep everyone safe, and make sure everyone is treated fairly. This process also helps schools be open about what they're doing and accountable for their actions. Overall, it helps make schools safer and more supportive. 3.
“Clear legal guidelines regarding school district responsibility for peer bullying are not currently available” (Stader, p. 135). However, many states and districts have attempted to address this challenge. What are some of the solutions that have been adopted and how effective are they? Can/should the district be held responsible when students bully other students, even if it is on the internet or social media?
States and school districts are trying different things to tackle the problem of bullying among students. They're doing things like making rules against bullying, training teachers, and working with the community to make schools friendlier. These efforts aim to make schools safer, reduce bullying, and help kids who are bullied. However, how well these solutions work can depend on how they're put into practice and the specific situation at each school. When it comes to blaming schools for bullying, especially online, it's complicated. It depends on whether the school knew about the bullying and what they did about it. Courts might look at whether the school took reasonable steps to stop the bullying if it made the school environment unfriendly, or if it contributed to the harm caused. Holding schools responsible for bullying can encourage them to take proactive steps to stop it, making sure students are safe and have a supportive environment to learn. Schools need to deal with bullying quickly, whether it's happening in person or online, to protect students and make sure they can learn without being afraid.

Implementation of a company’s strategic plan often begins by determining management’s basic expectations about future economic, competitive, and technological conditions, and their effects on anticipated goals, both long-term and short-term. Many firms at this stage conduct a situational analysis that involves examining their strengths and weaknesses and the external opportunities available and the threats that they might face from competitors.
After performing the situational analysis, the organization identifies potential strategies that could enable achievement of its goals. Part of this process involves business managers creating budgets to plan for future operations, create benchmarks to measure progress, and maintain necessary accounting controls.
The majority of literature that has used examples to describe a master budget have been limited to manufacturing companies. These companies tend to have comprehensive operating budgets and therefore serve as a good starting point in…
