Governmental immunity

Jaa’la Edwards and her parents Michel’e and Brent Edwards (collectively, the plaintiffs) appeal from the order granting summary judgment in favor of the Baraboo School District on the basis of governmental immunity.  The plaintiffs argue that two exceptions to the immunity doctrine apply: the ministerial duty exception and the clear and compelling danger exception.  We agree with the circuit court that neither applies.  Accordingly, we affirm. Affirmed. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
