If I was a 5th grade teacher in this scenario and I thought the post that Mrs. Smith posted on her social media page was very inappropriate I would do something about it. I would talk to Mrs. Smith and let her know what she posted even if it was her page is not something a teacher would be posting about. Especially working with diverse students and she still kept commenting back racial slurs and pictures. I would let her know even if she might not have her students and their parents on social media, other people would see the post and it can affect her career as a teacher. If Mrs. Smith does not seem to care about what I told her and continues with the posts then I would mention it to the principal.

Take a look at this scenario from Debbie and Jeff! Scenario.

I agree with you, Silvia. A teacher will always be under a microscope, so to speak. We are mentors to our students, and parents expect us to be a good example. This includes, but is definitely not limited to, refraining from posting/sharing inappropriate things. If a teacher desires to do so, then their page should be made private and only visible to family or very close friends in order to not make yourself liable.
ReplyDeleteI am in agreement with you Silvia. My question is, what if she is someone who constantly gets upset at everything and shes one of your peers? Do you think approaching her would damage your relationship with your coworker? How would you go about it then?
