THIS BOOK IS USED FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE IN THE EDUCATION GRADUATE PROGRAM, BUT I BELIEVE EVERYONE, INCLUDING BEGINNING TEACHERS SHOULD HAVE THIS BOOK. IT IS A BOOK THAT WILL SAVE ANYONE WHO IS IN THE EDUCATION FIELD A LOT OF MONEY AND HIS/HER PICTURE OFF THE FRONT PAGE OF THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER.

This is an easy to follow book that covers any questions an educator may have over just about any law. I loved that it had a regular index as well as an index of court cases.

This book was an asset. I used it instead of my assigned text when working to pass the TExES Principal exam. This book was much better and more reader friendly than anything else I had used. The special ed section is a Must Read as is the part on employee rights! I highly recomment this book!

The title doesn’t sound overly interesting but it actually is an interesting book. Teaching is an important job but there are a lot of things that a teacher could do to get in trouble (such as breaking privacy laws). The book also covers the law regarding starting a job contract, which I found to be particularly enlightening. It also covers some of the changes to Texas law since No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and laws regarding English language learners and illegal immigrants (they have the right to public education like anyone else). These are all important issues for the Texas teacher.
