What should I do?

by Marie

Dec 1, 2014

I accidentally took home a student's file before the holiday. Somehow it got mixed up with my other folders from college and I took it home. If I take it back to the office and tell them what happened, will I get in trouble and get banned? I'm thinking of just setting it on the counter on a a day I'm scheduled to work when it's busy so they won't notice. I relly love working at this school and don't want to get banned. Advice would be appreciated.

Octo787 Fess up and admit what happened. Just leaving it laying around randomly to be discovered at a later time is dishonest. Dishonesty is NOT a trait that good educators should possess.

Peggy I like your plan.....sneaky but certainly do-able. Although security cameras are on 24-7 I really don't think anyone will think twice about how it got there. Most likely someone will simply see it lying there, pick it up and put it away. Just don't get yourself in this pickle again!
