Case: I couldn't help it!
I'm a teacher that loves to get personable with her students. I show them that I care about them outside of my classroom. One night, I was supporting my students at a basketball game and one of my students needed a ride home from the game. She attempted to call her grandparents, parents, but no one answered. It was very dark outside. I decided to give her a ride. Is this against the code of ethics?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I agree with the comment above. Surely any teacher that really cares for his or her students would have done the exact same thing. I would certainly make contact with the parent when dropping off the student and make them aware they the student tried to call but did not receive an answer. I probably would have also called my administrator on the phone at the time of the incident to make them aware of what you were doing. I know there are some that would be against this kind of act but you couldn't leave the child there in the dark. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. If no one would answer the students phone call I think that the teacher taking the student home was fine. The teacher should contact administration to inform them of the incident. |

Comments: Even though this situation can be tricky legally and ethically, I think that anyone would agree that the students' safety comes before anything else, and if there is proof that the student has made attempted calls, and perhaps that the teacher and school have also made calls, then I see nothing wrong with making sure the student gets home safely. |
