3previous violations committed by the juvenile, and the dispositions imposed on the
4juvenile under s. 938.34 as a result of those previous violations.
AB199,60,115 6. Except as required under subds. 1. to 5. or by order of the court, no
6information from the juvenile's court records may be disclosed to the school board of
7the school district, or the governing body of the private school, or the governing body
8of the tribal school
in which the juvenile is enrolled or the designee of the school board
9or governing body. Any information from a juvenile's court records provided to the
10school board of the school district, or the governing body of the private school, in
11which the juvenile is enrolled or the designee of the school board or governing body
12shall be disclosed by the school board, governing body, or designee to employees of
13the school district or private school who work directly with the juvenile or who have
14been determined by the school board, governing body, or designee to have legitimate
15educational interests, including safety interests, in the information. A school district
16or private school employee to whom that information is disclosed may not further
17disclose the information. If information is disclosed to the governing body of a tribal
18school under this subdivision, the court shall request that the governing body of the
19tribal school or its designee disclose the information to employees who work directly
20with the juvenile or who have been determined by the governing body or its designee
21to have legitimate educational interests, including safety interests, in the
22information, and shall further request that the governing body prohibit any
23employee to whom information is disclosed under this subdivision from further
24disclosing the information.
A school board may not use any information from a
25juvenile's court records as the sole basis for expelling or suspending a juvenile or as

1the sole basis for taking any other disciplinary action, including action under the
2school district's athletic code, against the juvenile. A member of a school board or of
3the governing body of a private school or tribal school or an employee of a school
4district or, private school, or tribal school may not be held personally liable for any
5damages caused by the nondisclosure of any information specified in this subdivision
6unless the member or employee acted with actual malice in failing to disclose the
7information. A school district or, private school, or tribal school may not be held liable
8for any damages caused by the nondisclosure of any information specified in this
9subdivision unless the school district, private school, or tribal school or its agent
10acted with gross negligence or with reckless, wanton, or intentional misconduct in
11failing to disclose the information.
Note: Under current law, juvenile court records relating to ch. 938 proceedings are
confidential unless an exception is specified in the statutes. Those exceptions include a
requirement that the clerk of juvenile court notify the school board of the school district
or the governing body of a private school, or their designee, of certain matters relating
to a juvenile delinquency or JIPS proceeding or adjudication. The bill additionally
requires that the clerk notify the governing body of a tribal school, or its designee, of those
matters.
Current law requires that the school board or governing body of a private school
disclose this information to employees who work directly with the juvenile or who have
been determined by the governing body, or its designee, to have legitimate educational
interests, including safety interests, in the information. Current law prohibits the
employee from further disclosing this information. The bill requires the court to request
that the governing body of a tribal school, or its designee, disclose the information to those
employees and request that the governing body prohibit those employees from further
disclosing the information. The bill extends the immunity protections under state law
to employees of the tribal school.
Extending the immunity protections to employees of the tribal school does not
affect whatever right tribal school employees have to raise a defense of tribal sovereign
immunity if sued for redisclosure of the information.
AB199, s. 109 12Section 109. 938.78 (2) (b) of the statutes is amended to read:

7school that obtains information under this paragraph shall keep the information
8confidential in the same manner as is required of a public school under s. 118.125.
9Paragraph (a) does not apply to the confidential exchange of information between an
10agency and officials of a tribal school regarding an individual in the care or legal
11custody of the agency if the agency determines that enforceable protections are
12provided by a tribal school policy or tribal law that requires tribal school officials to
13keep the information confidential in a manner at least as stringent as is required of
14a public school official under s. 118.125.
AB199,61,1915 1m. An agency may enter into an interagency agreement with a school board,
16a private school, a tribal school, a law enforcement agency, or another social welfare
17agency providing for the routine disclosure of information under subd. 1. to the school
18board, private school, tribal school, law enforcement agency, or other social welfare
19agency.
AB199,62,620 2. On petition of an agency to review pupil records, as defined in s. 118.125 (1)
21(d), other than pupil records that may be disclosed without court order under s.
22118.125 (2) or (2m), for the purpose of providing treatment or care for an individual
23in the care or legal custody of the agency, the court may order the school board of the
24school district, or the governing body of the private school, in which an individual is
25enrolled to disclose to the agency the pupil records of the individual as necessary for

1the agency to provide that treatment or care. The court may request the governing
2body of the tribal school in which an individual is enrolled to disclose to the agency
3the pupil records of the individual as necessary for the agency to provide that
4treatment or care.
The agency may use the pupil records only for the purpose of
5providing treatment or care and may make the pupil records available only to
6employees of the agency who are providing treatment or care for the individual.
Note: Section 938.78, stats., provides that, subject to certain exceptions, the
department of corrections, a county department of human services or county department
of social services, or a licensed child welfare agency (collectively referred to as agency)
must keep its ch. 938 records confidential. Section 938.78 (2) (b), stats., provides the
exception that permits the confidential exchange of information with a public or private
school which is then required to keep the information confidential if required to do so
under the pupil records statute.
The bill permits an agency to confidentially exchange information with a tribal
school if the agency determines that a tribal school policy or tribal law provides
enforceable protections that require tribal school officials to keep the information
confidential in a manner at least as stringent as is required of public and private school
officials. The bill also permits interagency agreements for the disclosure of information
to include tribal schools and permits the court to request a tribal school to disclose
information necessary for the agency to provide care and treatment.

in a school zone, which includes on the premises of or within 1,000 feet of the school
premises, on a school bus or public transportation transporting pupils to and from school,
and at school bus stops. The bill adds tribal schools to the definition of a "school" for the

17-year old child with whom the person works or interacts as a volunteer.)
