Sobre IBD

School business officials (SBOs) must, in many respects, serve as all things to all people in their workplaces. This includes having a wealth of knowledge on legal issues ranging from contracts to setting policy to constitutional matters involving the rights of students and teachers. The chapters in this book have been written by a diverse group of individuals with experience as educational leaders in schools and/or who possess significant expertise in school law. In light of the need to keep SBOs up-to-date on many issues in the ever-changing world of Education Law, this volume is divided into two parts. The first section deals with issues that primarily impact on the management of schools, and the second deals with the rights of students and teachers. Each of the chapters is designed to examine a specific area about which SBOs need information. While no single book can ever hope to cover all of the myriad of legal topics that SBOs and other educational leaders must master in their professional lives, this book will serve as an up-to-date and ready source of information to help keep them abreast of the many changes in the ever-evolving area of school law.

    The United States Supreme Court was created in 1787 by the drafters of the Constitution almost as an afterthought, and it did very little in its early years. It soon turned out, however, that the Founders had wrought far, far greater than they knew. They had created a tribunal of Philosopher Kings. Surprisingly non-rigorous processes selected The Justices who inhabit these page...

  • Law And The Bible
    George P. Fletcher
    Like the facts of a legal case, the veracity of a Biblical story is irrelevant to its role of adding depth to a legal rule or axiom. Like the facts in a seminal Supreme Court case, the stories of the people in the Bible provide the context necessary to fully comprehend the values they adhered to and incorporated into law.  As you read the ten chapters in this volume, experience...

  • The Employment Rights of Teachers
    Jan De Groof
