Case
District workshop

You have a schedule conflict with a district workshop that gets re-certification credit. It's a topic you already know about. You get another teacher to pick up a report sheet and turn it in even though you don't really attend. Were principles violated?

Principles were definitely violated. You lied and pretended to be somewhere you were not. If there is a conflict in schedule, you should ask the principal what they advise you to do. Maybe there is a make-up session for you to attend. You can also let the principal know that you are aware of the topic and if there is anything else you can do.

I agree with this post. You are a role model for chldren you must set a positive example at all times and be honest. Discuss it with your administration.

This is definitely a violation of principles. Many re-certification credits are based on seat hours and if you are not there whether you completed the work or not you did not complete the seat hours. I always equate this to how I would feel if a student tried this in my class and whether or not they would receive credit even if they were not present.

This scenario is a violation of the Florida Professional Code of Ethics, 5a: The teacher shall maintain honesty in all professional dealings.
