An elementary school in Chicago successfully prevented U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from entering the building Friday morning, following Chicago Public Schools (CPS) protocols designed to protect students and staff.
Agents arrived at Hamline Elementary School around 11:15 a.m., but were kept outside while school administrators contacted the district's Law Department and Office of Safety and Security, according to CPS officials. The agents were denied entry and were not permitted to speak with students or staff, Fox 32 Chicago reported. Teaching and learning continued without disruption for the remainder of the day.
