Relating to: school board policies on appropriate communication with pupils. (FE)

SB 673 requires all Wisconsin school boards to adopt written policies by July 1, 2026, governing appropriate communication between school employees and volunteers (acting in their official capacity) and students. The policies must cover both in-school and outside-school communications, specify standards for content and communication methods, and outline consequences for violations. This applies to all public school districts and students attending home-based private educational programs. The bill does not define "appropriate" communication but mandates school boards establish their own clear standards and enforcement mechanisms.
