Dear Sturgis Families,
Sturgis Charter Public School is committed to enrolling and retaining a diverse student body and faculty who have a sense of belonging. In accordance with state and federal regulations, students are enrolled regardless of immigration status. Information on immigration status is not collected at the time of enrollment, in keeping with these policies.
Sturgis follows state and federal guidelines, including the Attorney General's Office memo titled “Guidance Regarding K-12 Schools’ Obligation to Protect Students and Their Information” (translated copies here) on January 27, 2025, that create rules for keeping both student information and student spaces safe from third parties.
Sturgis has a robust plan to ensure that student learning is not interrupted and that students feel supported. Faculty and staff have been trained and updated on all current guidelines. It is our hope that families know we are a community of care and concern for all our students, and take our responsibility to protect their privacy seriously.
Families are encouraged to regularly update contact information, including any emergency contacts. The Planning for Family Emergency packet can be useful, as is the Emergency Planning Guide for Families. Information on rights can be found at MIRA Coalition.
If you have any questions, please contact your child’s school.
