Relating to: parental notification of alleged sexual misconduct by a school staff member. (FE)

SB 97 requires public school boards, private school governing bodies, and charter school operators to notify parents or guardians when a report alleges sexual misconduct by a school staff member (as defined in Wisconsin law). Schools must provide this notification in person, by phone, or voicemail within specific timeframes - by 5 p.m. same day if reported before school ends, or by noon the next day otherwise. The law applies only to allegations involving staff members, not parents or guardians, and excludes reports received by unqualified school personnel. This bill directly affects parents of students in Wisconsin public, private, and charter schools by mandating timely communication about potential safety concerns involving school staff.
