The circumstances of each case are outlined, and the arbitrator's decision and rationale are summarized. Some of the issues addressed in the cases are how a teacher should handle a misbehaving student, whether it is ever appropriate for a teacher to use force on a student, how a teacher should respond to a threatening student, and how schools should deal with situations involving drug use.
