Definitely talk to the Principal, but I think you'll have better luck shaming her in front of everyone, as PP suggested. What a loser kid. I'm sorry you're being subjected to this, OP.

Talk to the principal.

This is an example of why many teachers quit. Students get away with everything. Sounds like this kid has never faced any real consequences and boldly ignores the rules.

Would report to the administration.

And the next time she takes a pic, also embarrass her in front of her peers. "Oh, I see you are using my picture for online dating again!"

You should also tell her it’s creepy, if you haven’t. I don’t think girls want to be told they are being creepy.

Talk to the administration before the next time that you work. If the principal agrees that this is a violation of the cell phone use policy, then enforce that. If she is caught taking your photo, then you follow the policy. If the policy allows you to confiscate her phone until the end of class, you do so. If not, send her to the principal's office and explain that she will not be allowed in your classroom until the photo is deleted and proven to you. She will be marked absent/tardy from your class for each session missed. She will be responsible for making up the lessons, tests, material that is covered in your class on her own that she has missed, e.g. she'll have to ask a friend to borrow notes or make up tests.

What you look like doesn't matter.

Students' goal is to try to impress their peers by posting unapproved video of the teacher. (not just subs)

Notify the school administration immediately. In our district, "Inappropriate cell phone use" results in a referral and discipline for the students.

NO ONE has the right to violate your privacy. Be aware, you must have a person's permission to post the image or they become liable for the behavior.

None of this excuses the behavior, of course. I'm just trying to understand why you are being targeted.

I'm none of those. Just an average person.

Tell her plainly she is not allowed to take your picture or image or record you in any way. Report her immediately to your Dean of Students/Principal and the person who coordinates subs. The student needs to be reprimanded. Then tell HR for your school system. You may want to speak with an attorney. If your school has a building rep for either a union or a teacher association then you should speak to that person, too.

In my school I'm pretty sure a student could be suspended with that. I'd start with detention, however.

Most teachers don't allow pictures.

School does not fall under the umbrella of "public" so you can say I don't authorize you to take my picture.

Somebody should be able to advise you on this type of vkassroom management.

Do NOT grab the phone and relax s little.

Thanks - today was the last straw.

I told her as a senior she should know better because this behavior in the real world can lead to much different outcomes unlike what she faces now due to being in a student environment in a public school.

I'm a sub inbetween jobs (i'm not a pro teacher) somewhere out west. There is a student who when she enters the class, uses snap chat to take a picture of me and snap it (i don't know if she puts it in her stories or sends it to someone(s)) on snapchat. Other students have tried likewise but when I tell them 'no', they listen, unlike her. I'm usually pretty easy going and as long as the kids do their work and are productive, i let a lot of things slide. The first time this happened, I kept saying no and she ignored my request. The second time it happened, it was in the library and I didn't want to make a scene. Today she thought she did it covertly by holding her phone low and walking past but I clearly saw her screen since i think snapchat uses only the front facing camera?

I feel like i'm going to get into a ricegum situation and yank her phone out of her hand and throw it against the wall the next time this happens. I've told her the first time that it was an invasion of privacy and to please stop and she didn't listen.

Should i take this to the administration or will they laugh at me? I asked her 'would you do this to another teacher, it's weird' and she laughed and goes 'sure sometimes, they wouldn't care' - but i think that was a bs answer. I didn't want to pull her out of class and talk to her one on one about in the hall way either - i felt that would look weird since i'm not a regular teacher.

please advise.
