  Case: Bringing Child to School
Ms. Anderson is a high school teacher, and her child is running a fever and therefore cannot attend her elementary school. Ms. Anderson does not want to use up a sick day, so she decides to bring her child to her job with her and have her sit at the back of the room throughout the day. Ms. Anderson did not ask permission to bring the sick child to work, so when administration became aware of the situation, Ms. Anderson was sent home with her sick child. What consequences should Ms. Anderson face?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If this is the first time this has occurred, the teacher may have been put in a tight spot or not realize she was breaking the rules. The administration should have a discussion with this teacher and make sure she understands this is not an option and that is why they have sick or personal days. They should also make a note to her file that a discussion took place. This is for record keeping purposes in case this situation happens again and further action needs to take place.

Comments: I like the solution. I am not a parent but I would at least have the common sense to keep my child at home if they are sick WITH a fever. Why would she risk exposing her students to her daughter who is not well.
