Selected Legal Issues in Catholic Schools by Mary Angela Shaughnessy Pdf

This book examines legal issues that affect Catholic high schools. Chapter 1 discusses sources of the law and how fairness and due process, federal and state statutes, and various guidelines shape the law. Tort law, corporal punishment, search and seizure, defamation of character, and negligence are covered in chapter 2. Chapter 3 details issues surrounding student privacy and such issues as confidentiality of records, whereas chapter 4 describes the staff-student relationship and how the law governs confidentiality, sexual misconduct, physical contact, and other behaviors. Since student confessions can be an important part of the teacher-student relationship, legal aspects of confidentiality, legal immunity, case law, the student journal, and school retreats are discussed. Chapter 6 looks at child abuse and neglect and considers statutory guidelines, inservice education, who should file a child-abuse report, and teachers and abuse. Sexual harassment is treated in the next chapter, which includes an overview of actions that constitute harassment and suggested policies for addressing reports of harassment. Other topics receiving treatment include accommodating students with special needs, extracurricular and cocurricular activities, personal conduct of professional staff, gangs, copyright law, school handbooks, and Catholic-school finances. Each chapter includes a section for reflection and discussion. (RJM)

The Law and Catholic Schools by Mary Angela Shaughnessy Pdf

The laws affecting education in the United States today can generally be classified according to four categories: (1) Constitutional law (both state and federal); (2) statutes and regulations; (3) common law principles; and (4) contract law. Students and teachers in private schools are not protected by federal Constitutional law because they are private agencies. For example, Catholic school administrators can restrict both student and teacher speech. In the Catholic school, contract law is the predominant governing law. The existence and roles of all parties involved in Catholic schools are governed by canon law, the law of the Catholic Church. Although civil courts will not allow religious institutions to evade legal responsibilities by invoking church law, churches have significant autonomy within the wide parameter imposed by civil law. After an overview of law as it pertains to Catholic schools, the next three chapters explore the legal duties and responsibilities of those involved in Catholic schools: bishops, pastors, principals, board members, teachers, students, and parents of students. The final section looks at some special situations such as corporal punishment, search and seizure, negligence, child abuse, and copyright laws. The book concludes with a detailed glossary and an index. (65 references) (MLF)

Catholic Schools and the Law of Special Education by Charles J. Russo Pdf

This reference guide examines special education, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and their implications for educators in Catholic schools. Chapters 1 through 4 look at special education, Section 504, and IDEA from a legal perspective. A brief history of special education is provided and several key court cases are discussed. The guide examines what Section 504 addresses and what must be done in compliance with it, including admissions examinations and standards as well as service plans. Ten key issues under IDEA are then addressed, including private and residential school placement, extended school year programs, related services, assistive technology, and discipline. Chapters 5 through 8 examine special education as it affects religiously affiliated non-public schools. In light of the 1997 IDEA amendments and the 1999 regulations, the guide addresses how these institutions fit within the laws requirements. Several key issues specifically facing Catholic school administrators are addressed, including working with parents and public school officials, providing staff development, and assessing the classroom setting. Appendices contain the United States Bishops statement on individuals with disabilities, selected relevant federal regulations, and a list of useful special education Web sites. (Contains 312 references.) (CR).
