Hold Catholic Memorial High School Accountable for Unjust Polices and Stop the Donations Now!!!!!!
The Issue
Catholic Memorial High School in Waukesha, Wisconsin has a written policy that states they will cooperate and assist U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) federal agents, even without a warrant ordering them to do so.
This rash and divisive policy puts the livelihood of staff and students at risk, subjugating them to the possibility of ICE agents interfering with education and worship to investigate, detain, or arrest students and staff without a warrant, or knowledge of local law enforcement agencies.
Here’s the law : Schools must comply with a judicial warrant signed by a federal or state judge. The warrant must explicitly identify the specific school location and the individuals or records being sought. Schools are not required to comply with an administrative warrant, which is issued by an immigration officer, not a judge. If ICE wants to interview a student, schools should obtain appropriate parental consent before allowing it. Schools can deny entry to non-public areas like classrooms and offices unless a judicial warrant is presented or the school gives explicit consent.

CMH high school should act within the confines of State and Federal law when in question with Federal Agents. Without this, students and staff are at a risk of unlawful detainment and detention— as we have seen all over this country.
On October 20th, 2025, Catholic Memorial High School terminated social studies teacher Rico Camacho, who serves as an Alderman for the City of Waukesha. Camacho shared a photo on Facebook in which residents had assumed ICE agents were in Waukesha. The post was later proven to be false, and therefore, Camacho took accountability, responsibility, and publicly apologized. The freeman capitalized on this story, which later, Catholic Memorial used to terminate Camacho’s teaching contract, based on discrimination for one of their teachers mentioning ICE, privately on social media. The City of Waukesha’s City Attorney stated that Camacho acted as a private resident, and the post was not tied to his work as an Alderman. Camacho did not reference his occupation or employer in the post, and Catholic Memorial on their own, ruled to terminate Camacho just days after the Freeman’s multiple stories flooded local news. We are asking that you stop all donations to the is unjust school now!!!! We want to let all Catholic Memorial families know that Catholic Memorial has policies in place that don't protect our children. Finally, we are demanding a public apology from Catholic Memorial High School for the discriminatory and wrongful termination of Rico Camacho.
Sign this petition, and ask Donors to stop their donations immedietly due to the dangerous enviornment their students may be a part of.
Why is this important?
Immigration is at the forefront of current events. The constant change in our political environment has created an atmosphere of fear based on the lack of knowledge about the legitimacy of identifying ICE agents. Now there are a few concerns with the issue at hand:
1. Although it was a false claim of ICE agents, we do not know for sure who is and who isn't ICE agents, and they have been terrorizing citizens and immigrants during this administration. Therefore, erring on the side of safety was the best course of action to protect my constituents.
2. Contrary to the statements of Pope Leo XIV and Archbishop Grob, as recently as October 5th, 2025 at the Jubilee of Migrants and the Jubilee of Missions, Catholic Memorial chose to terminate Alderman Rico Camacho, disregarding the Catholic doctrine that has been set forth
3. Brian Dorrow, Ceo at SRU (Secure Resources Unlimited) and husband of elected official and sitting judge Jennifer Dorrow, informed Alderman Rico Camacho that he would "escalate" the situation in a phone conversation regarding the post and subsequent apology. Over a situation that created minimal risk to his employees, per his statements to The Waukesha Freeman.
4. The post Alderman Camacho made was as a private citizen as the City Attorney verified with his office.
5. It was based on a public concern due to the political climate on immigration in the United States; especially, since the violence is in Chicago which is near to the city. Which causes concern again about retaliating based on a whi
6. Alderman Camacho is unaware of how the school was materially disrupted due to the Facebook post.
