Legal Question in Education Law in North Carolina
accusations
I'm a teacher. I worked in a union state. The union advised when an accusation was made to remain silent. Currently, I teach in a state with no unions. Recently, an administrator confronted me with accusations made by students. I chose to keep quiet. They said this was not acceptable. The superintendent said that this was part of my performance duties and I could not keep quiet.
Can you you provide me with any info to clarify this issue. Thanks.

Re: accusations
The legal situations differ from facts to facts. It cannot be patronised unless facts are same or similar. Many a times accusations if not answered by choosing to remain quiet it may be read otherwise. An act of acquiscence might prejudice your case.
