Student Confidentiality
All school communication is delivered to the legal guardian(s) of every student. If you are the legal guardian of a student and are not receiving communication, please reach out to the main office of your student(s)' school.
The Platteville School District is committed to the safety of all students within our schools. With this in mind, we uphold the confidentiality of every student within our communications and strictly follow all state and federal laws that protect student information. This includes, but is not limited to emergency situations, expulsions/suspensions, and cases involving law enforcement.
Attendance Alerts
Each day, when our schools collect attendance, an automated alert will be sent to any student's family members who has been marked absent that morning.
