A teacher at your school has complained incessantly about your district's low pay, including posting her complaints on her personal social media accounts. To earn some extra money at the beginning of the current school year, she launched a business on Etsy selling hand-painted dish towels.

During the course of the year, you realize that she is essentially operating her dish towel business out of her classroom. Throughout the day, she allows students to paint the dish towels, she posts product photos online, and she fills orders during her prep periods. She has even left the school during her lunch period to go to the post office to mail her orders. What is your legal responsibility? What actions will you take? What are some potential consequences to your actions, and how will you manage them?

1. What are the legal and/or ethical issues in the scenario, including specifying the related employment laws.

2. Justify the actions you would take, including policies and procedures that would help guide you.

3. Analyze the potential consequences and how they could be managed.
