Board reviews proposed policy on responding to immigration enforcement at school

What happened

At its March 12, 2026 meeting, the board reviewed proposed Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 1445, 'Response to Immigration Enforcement,' listed under community-relations policy items. The minutes record the board agreeing to bring it back as a first reading in April 2026, with staff training planned once it is adopted. It does not appear on the April 23, 2026 agenda or any other collected agenda through August 27, 2026, so the collected 12-month record does not show it reaching a first reading or a board vote to formally adopt it.

Why it matters to families

A district policy on how staff respond to immigration enforcement activity on campus - for example, whether officials are given access to students or records without a judicial warrant - directly affects immigrant families' sense of whether school is a safe, reliable place to send their children.
