Across the
United States, School District Boards are taking bold steps to protect their
undocumented students, as well as students of undocumented parents. These actions are in direct response to
President Trump’s administration immigration policy changes. More
recently, a South Florida School Board took bold steps to protect the students
of their undocumented parents, faced with deportation.
On Tuesday,
the School Board, which serves ?? of Broward County’s students, adopted a resolution
which would protect students from Custom Enforcement agents from entering a school, or
school-sponsored event, without a warrant. Any requests for access will be
directed to the district’s attorney. The board has
also taken on the responsibility of working with community organizations and families
to develop a plan for students when their parents are deported.
What is your school district's policy regarding undocumented students, or students from undocumented parents? If it is not serving all students, please encourage them to take a bold stand.
