AB57,1,2 An Act to create 120.13 (1) (f) of the statutes; relating to: the enrollment of a pupil who has been expelled from another school district.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a pupil who is expelled from one school district and moves to another school district must be accepted by the latter school district for enrollment. This bill provides that no school district is required to enroll a pupil during the term of his or her expulsion from another school district. The bill also provides that, if an expelled pupil seeks to enroll in another school district, upon request the school board of the pupil's former school district must provide the other school district with a written explanation of the reasons why the pupil was expelled.

The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:

AB57, s. 1 Section 1. 120.13 (1) (f) of the statutes is created to read:

AB57,1,9 120.13 (1) (f) No school board is required to enroll a pupil during the term of his or her expulsion from another school district. Notwithstanding s. 118.125 (2) and (4), if a pupil who has been expelled from one school district seeks to enroll in another school district during the term of his or her expulsion, upon request the school board of the former school district shall provide the school board of the latter school district with a written explanation of the reasons why the pupil was expelled.
