Difference between model code of ethics and a code of conduct. Georgia code of ethics is a list of “thou shalt not’s” The experience of COVID–19 has helped us be prepared. Worked with a lot of HR people in the state to help make better guidelines. Teachers should be professional at all times. Ethical behavior is doing what’s right even when nobody is looking. Teach the kids, protect the kids, conduct ourselves appropriately. If in doubt, at least talk it over with someone. Teachers are quick to go to social media. You could lose your effectiveness in the classroom because of your political view, and so you need to be careful when they’re known as a teacher rather than something else.
