Is it okay for a teacher to date an assistant principal who is not the immediate supervisor?

My female co-worker is in her 40's. She likes the new assistant principal and he gives hints that he liikes her as well. The Assist is not her immediate supervisor as there are several in the school. Is this a no-no and is this allowable?|||OK for the teacher, not OK for the asst. principal.|||That depends completely on what the school's policy is with dating between employees. As with any business, some have a zero-tolernace policy on dating among co-workers. Others allow it as long as it's reported to HR (or whoever is in charge). I'm sure there is a guideline book that explains it all. If it's unclear, they should go to their immediate supervisors and ask the policy before pursuing anything.|||School polices usually have rules against this, and if there is a rule against it and they get caught they both get fired.
