The new rules that make it clear school administrators cannot strip students down to their underwear is back at the Wisconsin Capitol.
An Assembly panel will hold a hearing today on the legislation that follows up a strip search in a northeastern Wisconsin school district. The administrator in Suring schools had six high school students strip down to their underwear in an attempt to find a vape cartridge. Prosecutors initially filed charges, but had to drop them because Wisconsin law doesn’t consider underwear to be part of a strip search. The new legislation makes it clear that it is, and makes it clear that school administrators shouldn’t be strip searching students.
