Safe School Resolution

During its meeting on December 10, the board reaffirmed its Safe School Resolution (first adopted in 2017), which outlines the board’s commitment to: 

• provide an equal opportunity for all students to attend our schools, regardless of ethnicity, race, religion, national origin, or immigration status;  
• protect student privacy, including having the district continue its practice to not collect or maintain information about our students' immigration status; 
• not allow any individual or organization to enter a school site if the educational setting would be disrupted by that visit, including any individual or agency attempting to enforce federal immigration laws; 
• do everything in the district's lawful power to protect our students' confidential information and ensure our schools are not disrupted by immigration enforcement actions. 

The resolution includes other commitments about actions the district will and can take in support of the resolution. The resolution, and a list of frequently asked questions on how schools respond to immigration issues, can be found on the district’s website.
