Richmond School Board voted unanimously this week to adopt a resolution preparing the members of its community for Immigration and Customs Enforcement's potential presence. The motion safeguards migrant students in the event that ICE tries to enter Richmond schools.
The resolution, which was officially passed Tuesday night, stated that "it is the right of every child, regardless of immigration status, to access a free public K-12 education" — and the schools' responsibility to ensure they can do so safely.
