The Board of Education voted to approve the district’s updated crisis manual and accepted staff certification that required safety training and drills were completed Sept. 2–15.
Why it matters: Wisconsin requires districts to maintain an updated school safety plan and to report completed drills and training to the Wisconsin Department of Justice, Office of School Safety; board approval satisfies the district’s annual reporting requirement.
What the board heard
Rachel (student and instructional services staff) told the board the crisis manual — the district’s school-safety plan — was updated and reviewed at the Sept. 9 S&I committee meeting and that all required safety training and drills had been completed between Sept. 2 and Sept. 15. She said the reporting requirement to the Wisconsin Department of Justice, Office of School Safety will be met and that the district recommends board approval to document completion and satisfy the state reporting deadline (report due by Jan. 1, 2026).
Board action
A board member identified as K. moved approval of the crisis renewal, and a second was recorded. The board voted by voice; the clerk recorded "Aye" and the board chair said the motion carries. The action was recorded as approved.
Ending
With the manual approved and drills certified complete, district staff said they will file the required report with the Wisconsin Department of Justice, Office of School Safety by the January 2026 deadline.
