District reports 18 crimes on high-school property under Wisconsin Act 12
Summary
Under Wisconsin Act 12 reporting requirements, the district reported 18 incidents on high school property in the most recent reporting period: 3 thefts, 12 substance/possession incidents and 3 municipal disorderly-conduct citations.
Tara (last name not specified) told the board the district prepared its annual report under Wisconsin Act 12, which requires reporting of certain crimes occurring on high-school property (during school hours, at school events or on transportation). She said the district worked with law enforcement, the county and the district attorney’s office to identify incidents where citations were issued or charges were filed.
Tara reported a total of 18 crimes meeting the reporting threshold for the period: three incidents classified as burglary/robbery/theft (all thefts), 12 incidents of possession or use of alcohol or a controlled substance, and three municipal violations related to disorderly conduct. The report has been filed with the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) and will be shared annually.
Tara noted Act 12 reporting covers incidents beyond enrolled students (for example, community members on campus) and that the district will continue to submit the required annual report by the July deadline.
