LAUSD clarifies what school staff should do if immigration agents show up on campus [SCPR.org]

Los Angeles Unified School Board members have clarified what staff on the district's campuses are supposed to do if federal immigration agents show up at their campus.

In February 2016, when they declared L.A. Unified campuses as immigration "safe zones," the board had already directed school employees to alert district higher-ups of any request from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

But in case the implication wasn't already clear, board members passed a resolution Tuesday to make it even more plain: school employees are not to comply with ICE requests until those higher-up officials — the superintendent and the district's top lawyers — complete their review.
