Board Item - P.-4.
Issue:

New Board Policy 5145.4.



Superintendent's Recommendation:

Approve new Board Policy 5145.4, Federal Immigration Enforcement on Campus.



Analysis:

It is the goal of the superintendent and staff to review the district’s board policies and administrative regulations on a regular basis and bring new and/or revised board policies and administrative regulations to the board of trustees for approval.

 

The recent approval of Resolution No. 4468 – Resolution Advocating for and Protecting Each of the District’s Students - calls for action on the district ensuring that district policies, regulations, and practices safeguard the educational rights and protections afforded to students, including, but not limited to, those found under the 2011 Memorandum from the Department of Homeland Security classifying schools as sensitive locations where immigration enforcement actions are prohibited, the State of California’s compliance with the California Trust Act of 2014, and to immigrant students and their families under the 1982 Supreme Court decision in the matter of Plyer v. Doe.
