Schools across the U.S. are preparing for potential disruptions due to fears of mass deportations under a possible Trump administration. Educators report that immigrant children are already feeling scared and anxious about their safety at school. 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 avoided enforcement actions at schools. However, proposed changes could alter this approach, raising concerns among educators about the impact on students' ability to learn without fear.
