Teacher with a Learning Disability

Legal Issues and District Approach

Jennifer K. Clayton

Old Dominion University

This case study focuses on a teacher who discloses a learning disability to her Principal. Given the teacher’s challenges in retention of her content material, the district is faced with how to handle the personnel situation of an employee with a disability. This case raises questions of how to balance the needs and interests of students with the employee’s rights under the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Key Words: teacher supervision • teacher disabilities • teacher employment law
