Yes, he faces further disciplinary action for lying to his principal
This may not be a directly fireable offense, but he should face a reprimand or writeup.
He does not have grounds to make a grievence with his union. The principal did not violate the terms of the contract
No, he can not be written up for refusing to write a statement.

Approach 2:
He will most likely be written up but will not be fired and will have to apologize to the student
This approach is more economical and makes more sense
No, he should not have offered to resign his position. It was a hasty decision.

-Yes, being dishonest w/ admin is a fireable offense, even w/ tenure.
-No, it's administration's job to investigate student accusations; teachers are duty-bound to cooperate. Formal statement also protects teacher.
-Not sure he can get written up; depends on district policy

-Incidental break of policy would result in a "slap on the wrist", poss letter of reprimand]]> 2017-05-31 21:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711083 https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711129 2017-05-31 21:55:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711129 https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711189 Approach 1:  Assuming Mr. Wade is lying, we believe it is a fireable offense, both for the violation and for the attempted cover up.
If he is not lying, we don't feel he has grounds to make a formal grievance against his principal for asking for a statement - although, we are not sure if he can be written up for refusing to make a statement (contract?).

Approach 2: We would have chosen this approach, but would not offer to resign.]]> 2017-05-31 21:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711189 https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711705 2017-05-31 22:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711705 https://padlet.com/jfalco15/casestudy4/wish/174711829 Approach 2 
-"Slap on the wrist" due to incidental break of a rule. Possible letter of reprimand.
-Yes, getting out in front of a problem is better than being caught up in lies and/or half-truths. Would have opted for union representation, however.
