Schools across the U.S. are preparing for potential disruptions amid fears of mass deportations under a new Trump administration. Educators report that immigrant children are anxious about their safety and the possibility of deportation, even if no actions have yet been taken. In response to these concerns, some school districts are training staff to prevent immigration agents from entering schools. Many superintendents are hesitant to discuss their plans publicly, fearing backlash from school boards or the community. Historically, U.S. immigration policy has protected schools as "sensitive locations," but proposed changes could alter this. School officials emphasize the importance of ensuring that all students feel safe and can access education without fear of deportation.
