Dear Sun Prairie Community,

We are looking forward to welcoming students back to school next week. We also want to acknowledge that this is a challenging time for our community. We value your partnership as parents and caregivers, and we want you to be informed about how we are supporting students and continuing the healing process in our high school communities

Included in this Communication:

  • High school student lessons on safety, empowerment, and community
  • Update on SPASD Board of Education Employment Investigation
  • Website updates with answers to frequently asked questions

Student Lessons:

To support students, all high school students will participate in lessons on Thursday, September 4. These lessons were designed in partnership with the RCC Sexual Violence Resource Center and SPASD Student Services. They are focused on fostering safety, empowerment, and community. We are sharing them in advance with parents and caregivers of our high school students so they may review them and discuss them with their students. 

In addition to lessons and supports for students, we are reinforcing expectations for staff regarding professional boundaries, including appropriate communication channels between staff and students. All staff, including those working with athletic teams and clubs, are required to use only district-approved communication platforms to ensure safe, monitored interactions with students. In addition, reinforcement of mandatory reporter responsibilities has occurred with our high school staff.
