Educators express concern over immigrant students' school attendance amid Trump’s deportation promises

orlandosentinel.com

Educators are concerned about the impact of Donald Trump's immigration policies on students, particularly children of immigrants. Many fear that threats of mass deportation will deter these children from attending school, as seen during Trump's previous presidency. Superintendents across the country are preparing for potential immigration enforcement in schools. Some are training staff to prevent immigration agents from entering campuses, while others are providing legal resources to help families plan for possible deportations. Despite a policy that protects sensitive locations like schools from immigration raids, uncertainty remains. School officials are hesitant to discuss their strategies publicly, fearing backlash from conservative school boards and communities.
