Equal Educational Opportunities
All children who reside in the district and are of legal school age are eligible to attend school. The admission of pupils shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Wisconsin Statues and board policies.
The approval of the board is required for the admission of nonresident pupils.
Children between the ages of 7 and 16 (except those exempted by law) are required to attend full-time day school; thereafter, they may attend part-time with the permission of the principal to follow a program designed to help them earn a high school diploma. The same expectation of regular attendance and academic performance will apply to such students as apply to regular day students.
The Ripon Area School District is committed and dedicated to the task of providing the best education possible for every child in the district for as long as the student can benefit from attendance and the student’s conduct is compatible with the welfare of the entire student body.
The right of a student to be admitted to school and to participate fully in curricular, extracurricular, student services, recreational or other programs or activities shall not be abridged or impaired because of a student’s sex, race, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, marital or parental status, genetic information, sexual orientation or physical, mental, emotional or learning disability.
Complaints regarding the interpretation or application of this policy shall be referred to the district administrator and processed in accordance with established procedures.
