RACINE — Jamill Sanders, a former teacher at 21st Century Preparatory School in Racine, was sentenced during a hearing Monday after pleading no contest to two counts of fourth-degree sexual assault, a misdemeanor, and one count of felony child abuse meant to intentionally cause harm.
For each misdemeanor charge, Sanders, 37, will serve nine months in the Racine County Jail.
He also will spend three years on probation for the felony charge.
The sentence was imposed and stayed, meaning that if the conditions of probation are violated and Sanders' probation is revoked, he will be required to serve two years in Wisconsin State Prison and two years of extended supervision.
The remaining charges — including second-degree sexual assault of a child and repeated sexual assault of the same child — were dismissed but read into the court’s record.
According to previous Journal Times reporting, Racine Police Department officers were sent to the K4-8 school on March 27, 2024, after a report of a sexual assault.
Sanders had been working at the school as a behavioral interventionist.
Five students, including two 12-year-olds and three 14-year-olds, reportedly made allegations against him.
