Abstract/Summary

Mr. Gabriel reported to school with bright hopes and expectations on his new role in the school. As he entered the faculty room he sensed something fishy from the group of teachers watching him as he is doing something on his table. One is not happy about his presence in school, an English teacher in high school secretly resented Mr. Gabriels acceptance of the job. Reason, if he had turned it down, the school authorities would have no choice but to offer the position to her. Among the 17 teachers, Ms. Acierto appeared to be the most knowledgeable, assertive and definitely confident. Her academic performances had deserved recognition by one and all. Her transcript of records was excellent. It was perhaps her awareness of her achievements and devoted service which re-enforced her already to think and presume that minus Mr. Gabriels acceptance she would be most eligible to assume the position. But the wheels of fortune turned against her. Mr. Gabriel signed in for the job and unwittingly may have shattered Ms. Aciertos nagging dream, to ascend the Principals rank. However, Mr. Gabriel discovered too early that her public relations were poor. Her reputation on the community was stained with reports of abuses and wrangles with her students. Her personal relationship with her peers was zero. His first few days of observation seemed to bear out the reports he heard. In addition to this, the special attention Mr. Gabriel had shown Ms. Acierto bloated her self-confidence and used it as a tool to dominate the staff and exercise her frustrated leadership. For sometime, the staff suffered the tyranny of her rule. When some teachers could no longer bear her oppression, they decided to see Mr. Gabriel and discussed the problem with him. May a teacher do anything he/she wants in school, provided he thinks it is right, and then just ignore his Principal? Should the Principal decide to dismiss the teacher, what legal aspects will be encountered? In solution to the problem posed in this case, alternative action were recommended by the writer in the latter part of the paper.
