Case Scenario:

As a superintendent of a large, high-performing suburban school district with extensive parent involvement and support, you have recently learned a significant amount of your state funding will be reduced for the upcoming school year. Voters recently approved a school working tax referendum in your school community. You also secured a 3-year contract agreement with your local teacher union, resulting in minor pay increases. The state funding reductions will require you to eliminate a significant amount of money from the school district’s operating budget. A school district budget committee has revealed reduction proposals in teaching positions and supplemental services and programs for students. These proposed reductions involve:

A reduction of teaching positions resulting in enlarged student class sizes reaching or exceeding the union agreed-upon maximum limit; additional pay would be required for teachers whose student class sizes exceeded the union agreed-upon maximum,
The elimination of high school busing because this transportation service is not required by law in your state,
Parents are required to pay additional costs for their children to participate in all extra-curricular activities, including all school-sponsored athletic programs, and
The elimination of programs for gifted students because these services are not required by law in your state.
Assignment Criteria:
use Badaracco’s (1992) four-question framework to analyze right-vs.-right ethical dilemmas. Be sure to address the following:

Recommend the best course of action that will do the least harm.
Explain which alternative best serves others’ rights, including shareholders’ rights.
Think of the plan you could live with that is consistent with your district’s basic values and commitments.
Determine which course of action is feasible in the world as it is.
Be sure to defend your identification of an ethical plan to reduce your budget expenditures for your board of education for the upcoming school year, using your school district budget committee’s proposed reductions.
