Abstract | While there may be no definitive answers for navigating questions of school authority and teacher independence, the author outlines in this article some useful guideposts. These guideposts are not prescriptive; rather, they are important food for thought. They do not guarantee easy solutions. However, social studies teachers are preparing young people to hold the "Office of Citizen" in a democracy, where transparency and openness are both valued and honored. Without teachers who are willing to stand up for democratic values, social studies loses its significance and the preparation of citizens becomes less authentic and certainly, less meaningful.
