Note:

On Friday, December 11, leadership became aware of a high school staff member who has violated both
district policy and state laws related to an inappropriate relationship with a student. The violations
were specific and did not put the general student population at risk. The staff member involved is no
longer employed by the district. The staff persons identity will become public. Out of respect for those
involved, the district will not release the name at this time. A police investigation is on-going. As the
police investigate the matter, it may become an interest for the news/media. The leadership team asks
that you refer any news media to Dr. Pat Greco, superintendent. She will serve as the district
spokesperson. Staff members are asked to not engage in conversations with the media in order to keep
the district message and information consistent.

If approached by media or a parent on this situation, leadership asks that you use the following
statement, The district has taken steps to resolve the situation. Any questions or concerns need to be
directed to Dr. Greco, our district superintendent.

The following will be shared with parents this evening through School Messenger:

On Friday, December 11, District leadership became aware of a high school staff member that allegedly
violated district policy and state laws related to an inappropriate relationship with a student. Upon
learning this information, the District immediately began an investigation into the situation that had
been reported to District leadership. The staff member involved is no longer employed by the district. A
police investigation is ongoing.

The safety and well-being of our students is the highest priority for the School District of Menomonee
Falls. The District takes this responsibility seriously and will promptly investigate any concerns regarding
student safety while also insuring that any such investigation is handled professionally and respects the
confidentiality of all persons involved. When appropriate, we partner closely with the Menomonee Falls
Police Department. The District is prohibited by law from discussing any specific personnel or student
matter.

This story will likely become of interest to the news media. The district asks that parents, students and
staff direct any and all media questions and concerns to Dr. Greco, District Superintendent or Megan
Sheridan, Director of Communication & Community Outreach.
