Question

In the case of Weaver v. Nebo School District (adapted from Bennett-Alexander & Hartman, 2015, pp. 482–484), a school teacher honestly replied to a question from a student asking if she was gay. She was relieved from her duties as a coach, and a note was placed in her file. This was found to be unconstitutional on equal protection grounds. How would you respond to calls if you were the school administrator? Head of HR for the school district? Should the school have ignored the teacher's record? Does it make a difference that the teacher's disclosure that she was gay was in response to a question? Explain.

Explanation / Answer

i will punish the student and i will take action against him or her.

these kind of questions does not help the student's education capacity of level of knowledge, so preferebly i avoid this kind of interactions and gives strict guideliness about what the students can do and what not to do.

no, the school should not ignore or obay the teacher's record

no, either she may a gay or not, here she is an employee, we only stick to focus on her performance at work.
