The teacher argued that the convictions did not relate to teacher effectiveness as her first grade students did not know of her arrests. Will her termination be upheld by the courts? Why or why not? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Yes, her termination will be upheld by the courts. Teachers are expected to be role models, whether or not their students know what happens outside of school. Even if the students do not know, parents may know. Teachers are role models for families, as well.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Teachers are role models for students, parents and the community.
