Administrator Code of Ethics

In our 696 class, our Professor asked us to review the AASA Code of Ethics and create our own. Above is my visual based on my own code of ethics, I think it is still a work in progress but this is what I have so far! AASA Code of Ethics The educational leader: 1. Makes the education and well-being of students the fundamental value of all decision making. 2. Fulfills all professional duties with honesty and integrity and always acts in a trustworthy and responsible manner. 3. Supports the principle of due process and protects the civil and human rights of all individuals. 4. Implements local, state and national laws. 5. Advises the school board and implements the board's policies and administrative rules and regulations. 6. Pursues appropriate measures to correct those laws, policies, and regulations that are not consistent with sound educational goals or that are not in the best interest of children. 7. Avoids using his/her position for personal gain through political, social, religious, economic or other influences. 8. Accepts academic degrees or professional certification only from accredited institutions. 9. Maintains the standards and seeks to improve the effectiveness of the profession through research and continuing professional development. 10. Honors all contracts until fulfillment, release or dissolution mutually agreed upon by all parties. 11. Accepts responsibility and accountability for one’s own actions and behaviors. 12.
