On Tuesday, September 26, 2017 at approximately 2:15PM I was exiting the security office for dismissal at HAAS. When I entered the vestibule area I noticed a parent in the main office, who appeared agitated. I entered the office area and I asked if I could assist her, she told me she was meeting with a teacher. I asked her if she had an appointment and who was the teacher, she proceeded to tell me it was with Mr. Greg MAZUREK, and referred to him as a "pedophile." I instructed her to refrain from using that terminology, and she continued by stating, HUDOCK and MEARS, both HAAS Teachers were also pedophiles. Mrs. Marie ERNST, HAAS Assistant Principal, heard the parents' allegations, and we directed the parent and daughter into Mrs. ERNST's office and closed the door to continue the allegations in a confidential manner. I asked the parent her name, she identified herself as Mrs. Tracey LEONARD and her daughter Sydney LEONARD, grade 11. Mrs. LEONARD stated she was here because of a "0" that Sydney received for not completing an assignment. Mrs. ERNST told Mrs. LEONARD she would talk to Mr. MAZUREK regarding the grade and would rectify the concern regarding Sydney's grade. …show more content…

Leonard regarding the allegations of the 3 male teachers and she stated her concerns were due to male teachers addressing Sydney about dress code. LEONARD said she feels her daughter is being singled out and again referred to MAZUREK, MEARS and HUDOCK of being pedophile's. I told Leonard the term pedophile was an extremely inappropriate comment and could be considered defamation of character. I informed Mrs. LEONARD, a follow up meeting would be scheduled and stated she would be available after 9:15am the next day. Mrs. ERSNT informed Mr. Rocco PETRONE, HAHS Principal of the incident. Mr. PETRONE notified Chief of Police Edward HARRY, Director of Security and School Police Services both informed Mrs. ERNST they would be attending the

    At Hazel East High School, the school has a sponsored newspaper called “The Spectrum” that is written and edited by the students. On May of 1983, the high school principal, Robert E. Reynolds, received the edited version of the May 13th edition. Upon inspecting the paper he found two articles that he found “inappropriate.” The two articles contained stories about divorce and teen pregnancy. The article on divorce featured a student who blamed her father’s actions for her parents’ divorce. The following article featured students at Hazelwood East and their experiences as teen parents in high school. Reynolds immediately asked for the two articles to be withheld from that weeks edition. Reynolds had concluded fairness required the father in the divorce article to be informed of the article and given the chance to make any comments. He also stated that changing the names of the girls in the teen pregnancy article may not be sufficient enough to keep them unidentified. Also, the topic is not suitable for younger students. As a result he forbid the two articles from being published. On October 13, 1987 Cathy Kuhlmeier (a student at Hazelwood East High) claimed that Hazelwood East High School was violating her First Amendment rights, and her case was

  • Elementary School Case Study: Frugis V. Bracigliano

    (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). The judges in this case needed to determine of Elmwood Park Board of Education was at all responsible for this act due to lack of supervision of Bracigliano (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). The facts of the case explain that Bracigliano obstructed views into his office as soon as he became the principal in 1982, which was against a New Jersey law that required every room used by school staff to have a view into it (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). During his tenure as principal a state inspector ordered that the covering be removed, which it was, but only temporarily (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). The School Board was aware that the covering was ordered to be removed by the state inspector, but they never verified that it had in fact been removed (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). Staff members were also aware that students frequently visited Bracigliano’s office, the door was locked, and pictures were taken when the students were in there (Frugis v. Bracigliano, 2003). Several staff members also witnessed Bracigliano doing inappropriate things to students, but they were unaware of the procedure to report these acts and, therefore, the acts went unreported to Bracigliano’s superiors (Frugis v.

    The area high school had undergone a large amount of change in the last seven years and has continued to revamp their current curriculum to meet the recent changes in the education laws. The previous administration had been in office for several years and had a track record of being well organized and supportive of their staff. Seven years ago, the majority of the administration retired/left along with a bulk of the tenure faculty, causing a number of inexperienced individuals to take over key positions. Therefore, the faculty left to replace the head of the science department lacked the inexperience and may not have been the best person for the position.

    It was scheduled on a non-staff meeting day and a selected group of individuals beside the regular teaching staff was mandated to attend. This meeting was different from all the meetings I have ever attended at the school. After all required staffs were present in the meeting room, the principal asked that the doors be shut, and that the teachers sat in a circular position around tables where they could all see each other. The meeting was about the behavior of teachers and other administrative staff. Prior to the meeting, it was obvious that there were tension among staff members in the school. One major problem discussed in the meeting was that the principal was wrongfully reprimanding individuals without thoroughly investigating information presented to her by some members of staff. The principal did not take this problem presented in the meeting lightly. Hence, she apologized about it and since then, she has been making every attempt to remedy the situation by visiting classrooms more regularly, and sitting in and participating in different group meetings. Tschannen-Moran (2004) advised that trustworthy school leaders must learn to create conditions in which trust can flourish within their school as well as between their school
