The FRISK Process

Due process is defined as rights enabled by the United States Bill of Rights, and Fourteenth Amendment which cannot intentionally reject the written code of conduct by the school (MMSA, 2015). Also, inappropriate conduct drafted in the student handbook will have appropriate consequences which include suspension (MMSA, 2016). But unlike the court case, MMSA has specific methods for those due process standards. The manual of conduct and procedures for MMSA is signed by the parents and students before enrollment (MMSA, 2015). The critical issue is when Court required of school suspensions without a specifics due process execution. The handling of due process is based on discretion and will to do best for the students. At MMSA, there is report first, phone call of parent, and the hearing of what occurred before a consequence (Alatorre,

college level, the hiring of coaches is a key responsibility for athletic directors that can be subject

Before recommending a dismissal for Alice's performance, she must undergo procedural and substantive due process. "The burden of proof resides with the board of education to show cause based on a preponderance of evidence" (Essex, 2012, p. 254), and in this case the only problem is her changing a grade for an athlete, which is not a reason for dismissal. "Teachers may be dismissed only for specified reasons that are based on objective and documentable evidence" (Essex, 2012, p.

Removing a teacher from his or her position is very difficult to do. “Tenure benefits the state by helping to create a permanent and qualified teaching force” (Underwood, Webb 36). This makes it difficult to let a teacher go even when it is to make the school a better environment for the students. Although teachers do have the right to freedom of speech and are able to exercise their First Amendment right, that freedom is in a way limited by the school board. Pickering v. Board of Education (1968) is a great example of this. A high school science teacher was terminated by the board of education because a letter he wrote was published in one of the community’s newspapers. The letter discussed the unequal funding between academics and athletics. After

My name is _________ and I am here to bring attention to the “Stop and Frisk Laws” and how they affect our youth and damage our society. Also through this exchange of information I hope to show how these type of laws go against our constitutional rights.

The school district investigated the incident and the superintendent is suggesting the dismissal of Fred Lipton and Ana Hernandez.

Finally and foremost, school districts need to get rid of tenure. It is absolutely insane to allow a teacher to have absolute job security no matter how badly they perform. If a teacher can teach they will always have a job. Tenure does not protect high performing teachers as it was intended to do instead it protects low performing teachers. This is vital in getting rid of horrible teachers like Mrs. Eicher who is immune to job loss as a result of how long they have worked at the school.

Indeed, as with previous iterations of guidance, the legal policies of investigative practice can be difficult to implement outside of the formal judicial system: a lack of proper evidentiary handling and a fundamental misunderstanding of the process whereby facts are determined can prove impediments to a fair and impartial investigation. Moreover, the hearing process itself and the limitations imposed on the ability of both the Complainant and the Respondent to directly question and cross-examine one another make it difficult for an institution to adhere to the fundamental due process rights implied in the Letter under certain conditions: “Public and state-supported schools must provide due process to the alleged perpetrator.” Herein, another difficulty arises with respect to the ambiguity

What is stop and frisk? Who uses stop and frisk? According to Haq stop and frisk is a “program that enables a police officer to stop, question, and frisk a person for weapons”(1). This means that a police officer can only search someone if they possess reasonable suspicion and follow their guidelines. People should have open ideas of ways of reducing gun violence and not closing before hearing the proposals. People say that stop and frisk promote racial profiling and that it invades one’s privacy rights. Police officer are human being and make mistakes because no one is perfect in this Earth. Gun violence has been a main subject now a day, where you hear it on the news about a school shooting. Stop and frisk are an effective way to bring down crime rates in one’s city yet some people may think otherwise and think it’s not acceptable. The practice of stop and frisk is necessary to protect the people and to be capable to reduce crime off the streets; without it crime rates like gun violence would increase drastically.

The practice of the NYPD in which police officers stop and question a person, then frisk them for weapons and other contraband is known as the policy: stop and frisk. This controversial policy has garnered much debate in recent years. With the continuation of the practice, many Americans have begun to fear going out on the streets, in risk of encountering a police officer. On many social media sites, there are public videos of these encounters where police brutality is present during frisking. Many people, including myself, that watch these videos feel angry and embarrassed that in our world this is happening. Something needs to be done to stop this.

Mr. Jones acted as an ineffective leader. As a matter of fact, neither he demonstrated his leadership skills when he reacted before he was prepared to do so. First, he disobeyed a mandate from his supervisor when he disclosed the information given to him, on an apparent violation of the Code of Ethics of the Education Profession in Florida, Rule 6B-1.001 (2): “…The educator will therefore strive for professional growth and will seek to exercise the best professional judgment and integrity”. He shredded his integrity, when he failed to show loyalty to his supervisor. Furthermore, principal Jones seems to be new as an administrator. Even when the authors only described him as in his first year of principal in the neighborhood school, they do not provide any more information to evidence prior experience as an administrator in other settings.

Staffing a school is the most important responsibility and service a principal has to attend and to provide a school. Students have a right to be taught by highly qualified teachers and in this case a highly qualified basketball coach. The case study #16 presents a situation where the principal has to begin recruiting to fill a basketball coaching position that has been long filled by two brothers that are ready to retire due to health reasons. The principal feels the pressure to have to fill this position, but finds it a bit challenging for a number of reasons—salary considered too low, not enough interest in “girls’ teams by the community, racial and gender concerns, and scandals in nearby district concerning males coaching girls’ teams. An athletic director for the high school suggests that she look into asking the parents of the players. (Kirschmann, 1996)

Even though the details of required procedures must be gleaned from state statutes and school board regulations, courts have held that students facing expulsion from public school are guaranteed at least minimum due process under the Fourteenth Amendment (see Figure 8.2 for procedural elements). The procedural safeguards required may vary, depending on the circumstances of a particular situation. In a Mississippi case, a student and his parents claimed that prior to an expulsion hearing, they should have been given a list of the witnesses and a summary of their testimony. Recognizing that such procedural protections generally should be afforded prior to a long-term expulsion, the Fifth Circuit nonetheless held that they were not requisite

When hiring an athletic coach or even an individual it is process. Such a process revolves around the normative principal of justice and paternalism (Thornton, Champion Jr., & Ruddell, 2012). When we negate the interview, qualifications, and experience portion of finding a particular coach then the process of Justice is being thrown out.

The ordinariness of the scene, in which people are shopping in a store, does not seem to fit the theme of “stop and frisk”, which should be a case of extremeness. Maybe the only explanation, implied by the video, for this strange combination of ordinariness and extremeness is that all the people involved are African Americans. It should be a shame to notice and acknowledge that the ordinariness of one group can be the extremeness of another. The narrative of the speaker is lack of emotion, indicating that African Americans have been used to such extremeness frequently happening in their daily lives: they are not willing to be involved in stop and frisk, but they have no other choice. The sentences such as “get on the ground” and “I just knew” are repeated in the video. Those people do not want to get on the ground or even get naked during stop and frisk, situations that are actually humiliation, but they know that they have to do so without other choices. Those repeated words, with the feeling of despair, are like ghosts that keep haunting those African Americans, making stop and frisk an unescapable nightmare in their lives they are supposed to enjoy freely and happily.
