Legal Question in Education Law in New York
Educational law
The teacher contract in a public school setting states that all observations must be upfront and in the open. However, the school has installed security cameras in the gymnasium and has been using said cameras to secretly observe teachers. Recently a teacher covered the camers with construction paper with permission from the union and with administrative knowledge. Now that teacher has been suspended from duties with pay. Does the teacher have any recourse in this?

Re: Educational law
Of course he has a remedy. The Union should be fighting for him. It would appear that the camera is a violation of the labor contract at least during school hours. There should be a union attorney who has filed a grievance and asked for a stay of the penalty till the grievance can be heard.
Good Luck.
