KENOSHA, Wis. — Kenosha Unified School District officials have issued a public reminder to families outlining how school administrators and staff are instructed to respond to unannounced visits by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or cooperating law enforcement agencies, following what district leaders described as growing uncertainty and distress in the community.

In a message posted publicly by district officials, KUSD said it has worked with legal counsel to establish internal procedures aimed at preparing school leaders for such visits while minimizing disruption to students during the school day.

According to the district, KUSD does not collect or maintain immigration records for students and therefore cannot and will not share immigration-related information with any requesting agency. District officials emphasized that this policy applies universally and is not subject to discretion by individual schools.

The guidance draws a clear distinction between public and private areas on school grounds. Public areas — such as parking lots and spaces used for after-school activities including field houses, auditoriums, and gymnasiums — may be accessed by visitors. However, private areas, including classrooms, hallways, cafeterias, and other instructional spaces during the school day, are not accessible without permission.

District administrators have been provided with specific steps to follow if law enforcement arrives at a school without prior notice, and staff members have received guidance on how to respond. KUSD said those procedures align with existing district policies governing visitors and access to school buildings and grounds.

Families with questions were encouraged to contact their individual building administrators for additional information.

  1. I’m more concerned about the sex offenders legally here working for KUSD than the illegal people working for KUSD.

    1. A lot of those illegals are sex offenders. And you can’t say it’s ok to break the law. Get your fucking mind right.

      20
      17
    1. We are doomed. Trump and his cult of billionaire pedophiles who rule the world are taking us all to the gates of Hell. Yet so many of us are incapable of seeing it.

      16
      37
          1. The fact you think this is funny to say and ‘applaud’ our president for saying it is just one example of why we as a country are doomed.

            Our president acting like a child is no different than wiping your ass with the American flag.

            You get angry at sports players taking a knee, exercise their 1st amendment right in protest, yet don’t have the decency to hold the president accountable for his endless disrespect to the office.

            You are no patriot. You’re just as much a child as he is.

            4
            10
      1. Still confusing the current President with the actual pedophile Bill Clinton. Bang your head a few more times against the wall and maybe you’ll snap out of your idiot phase.

        17

        1. Yes, Bill Clinton is a pedophile. He needs the rope. But so does Trump. All these billionaires pedophiles need the rope.

          4
          14
            1. If you are referring to the Clinton’s, they are democrats. FUCK THEM AND ALL THE OTHER PEDOPHILES, including Trump and his billionaire buddies.

              4
  2. Funny how they have all kinds of rules for LEO to enter a school building, does that also apply to when they NEED LEO as in a disruptive person who enters the school to inflict harm? LEO runs towards danger to save others. Ya can’t pick and choose when it applies.

    14

    1. Yea, right. That army of cops in Uvalde, Texas did nothing to save the day when they allowed the punk shooter to kill a couple dozen kids. Those cops did not run towards danger. They stood around and beat down anyone who actually wanted to stop the massacre.

      13
      1
        1. I suppose if that provides you with comfort, make that statement.

          Texas is one of the most red of all our red states. It is full of hardcore 2A types. There were dozens of ICE agents at that scene who did nothing. Yet, ICE has the courage to push down a woman and execute the man who tried to protect her.

          I don’t have confidence that the police would do any better here in Wisconsin.

          3
          7
  3. To make schools safer we need to get rid of Weiss and his HUGE salary and elect school board members that are for the children not their agendas of crazy!

    27

  4. I struggle with why do school districts all of a sudden have LEO protocols just ridiculous. Are they laying of the liaison officer can’t make this shit up.

    1. groups the teachers union gave millions to. It’s got nothing to do with safety. Or teaching. Covid already taught us the NEA doesn’t care if anyone’s in the classroom, much less learning.

      14
      4
      1. We teach illegals. We hire special teachers who know the languages.
        We get paid from the Federal government per headcount. So administrators do not care who’s sitting in the seat or who’s voting at the polls💀☠️

        11
        4
    2. Dems are all about drama so they prepare ahead of time. It fulfills them and makes them feel important. Drama drama drama!

      3
      1
  5. The KEA and it’s minions at KUSD are hypocrites promoting a political agenda.
    They insist on student ID yet oppose voter ID. They speak of student privacy yet allow gender confused to invade spaces they don’t belong. They claim to protect students while hiring perverts without vetting. Three out of four kids cannot read at grade level or perform basic math without a calculator yet their biggest concern is protecting people that don’t belong here. Illegal aliens and their children are not entitled to anything other than a trip back where they came from. Our schools should not be registering them or using resources for them. ICE will no longer need student information or enter school property…….problem solved.
    If you disagree, remove all locks from your house and fences from your property. Everyone is entitled to YOUR stuff and you get to pay for it.

      1. Whatcha gonna do? Anonymous threatening anonymous is hilarious. Why don’t you come up with a valid argument instead?

        13
      2. …can’t take seriously any of these yella’ ‘contributors’ who will only post anonymously.
        Your courage matches the depth of your convictions.
        Grow-up.

        1
        2
        1. In these days of “doxxing” and harassment, I’m grateful for an anonymous forum. I don’t want some weirdo vandalizing my property, harassing my family or worse because we don’t agree on a topic. Courage has nothing to do with staying anonymous. Veterans like myself don’t want to be coerced into educating people on the finer points of FA/FO.
          Staying anonymous serves us all well and safely gives us a voice, just like when we vote.

          4
          1
  6. Did they address for when rescue squads or fire trucks come? Will they have to notify all the parents if rescue squad comes for a different kid? I mean, the Kenosha Firemen can barely afford medical care themselves….

    7
    1
    1. Yet it’s okay to let students walk out of class to protest ICE! Talk about brainwashing our children! Maybe go back to teaching the basics, reading, writing and arithmetic! They are raising weak, stupid, children.

      7
      1
  7. Here’s a crazy thought ,,, no schools should allow Illegal Aliens to attend or enter the premises.
    ALL local law enforcement cooperates completely with ICE…

    Problem, Issue,, solved.

    20
    2
  8. What KUSD needs to be concerned about is the lack of secure entrances in the schools. You buzz a buzzer, the main office remotely unlocks the doors and then you have access to the entire school. A secure entrance is not a locked door. It is an entrance that allows you into a secure area before having full access to the entire school building. They need to be concerned about actually keeping the children safe before making policies to appease the political climate.

    9
    0
  9. KUSD are not the only local schools who did this. I think All Saints principal wrote about this in their school newsletter.

  10. Just close the schools, obviously they are hurting Kenosha more than helping. Fire them all the teachers union and certainly the a****** in charge are definitely paid agitators.
