ABSTRACT
In today's social media universe, where some consider etiquette, tact, and self-restraint to be irrelevant such a suggestion might be viewed as quaint. Aqua Springs High School (ASHS) in a suburb of the city of Springstone Bluff was built in 2007 and opened in 2008 to accommodate the school district's growing student population. Whenever issues arose at Aqua Springs High School, the assistant principals (APs) and secretaries handled them and eventually were seen as the school's true leaders. This chapter explores a brief insight into the issues presented in the case study, with a brief literature review to help give context to those issues. Twitter, Facebook, and other social media, it is best to follow state laws and school district policies if you are faced with online defamation. Some states address electronic communication through their educational or penal codes, which school districts uphold through their employee and student handbooks.
