Candidates say teacher social‑media conduct requires professional standards, but enforcement rests with administration
At the Moorestown candidate forum, speakers discussed how teachers should handle personal social media accounts, generally urging that staff be mindful of their public posts while noting that enforcement and discipline are administrative responsibilities.

Ayesha Hassan said professionals who work with children should “uphold a certain standard” and that ethical expectations apply to roles that influence youth. Claudine Marano, the district’s policy chair, noted there is an existing district policy addressing staff social-media use and said enforcement is the superintendent’s role. “That is not our position. That is not our role,” she said of the school board.

Danielle Miller and Katie Berman urged responsible, role-model conduct by teachers but resisted board-level policing of personal speech. Berman said teachers need to “show responsible social media use” and noted the real‑world consequences that can follow viral posts. Candidates emphasized the importance of clear administrative policies, professional development and parental privacy protections; no policy changes were proposed at the forum itself.
