WI SB999

DPI investigations of educator licensees for immoral conduct cannot be ended or revocation hearings terminated unless the licensee permanently surrenders their license and waives all appeal rights

Licensees who surrender during immoral conduct investigations must be publicly identified on DPI's website, including their name, that the surrender is permanent, and that it occurred during an immoral conduct investigation

State superintendent is prohibited from entering agreements that suppress or destroy information related to immoral conduct investigations, or that require expunging or keeping confidential substantiated allegations or findings of immoral conduct

Investigation records resulting in revocation or permanent surrender must be provided within 14 days of an open records request, and the personnel file exemption under s. 19.36(10) does not apply to these records

Licenses surrendered during immoral conduct investigations cannot be reinstated by the state superintendent
