“Immoral Conduct” Bill Moves Forward
By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | November 4, 2011
On Tuesday, the Assembly concurred in the Senate’s unanimous passage of Senate Bill 49, relating to revocation for immoral conduct of a license issued by the
Department of Public Instruction. The bill provides that “immoral conduct” includes the intentional use of an educational agency’s equipment to download, view, solicit, seek, display, or distribute pornographic material. The bill also requires an administrator, when reporting “immoral conduct” to DPI, to include a complete copy of the licensee’s personnel file and all investigative records.
The bill also requires DPI to post the name of the licensee under investigation on the DPI website. Finally, the bill requires DPI to maintain a record of all investigations it conducts.
The SAA worked with the bill authors, Senator Luther Olsen (R- Ripon) and Representative Steve Kestell (R- Elkhart Lake), on development of SB 49. The bill now moves on to the Governor’s desk where we anticipate it will be signed into law.
