A Message of Support to All Our CUHSD Families 

January 22, 2025

Dear CUHSD Community,

 

Yesterday, the new federal administration ended guidelines that previously protected schools, healthcare facilities, and places of worship from immigration enforcement actions by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). While I am deeply disappointed in this decision, I want to remind the community that our district remains committed to keeping our schools safe spaces for all students and families regardless of citizenship status.

 

It is important to understand that while immigration authorities may now have the option of making arrests at schools, they cannot freely enter campuses or move about them without limitations. Our staff have been trained to follow established procedures, including requiring immigration authorities to present valid court orders and ensuring legal boundaries are respected. 

 

School staff do not collect or maintain information about students’ or families’ citizenship status. To further protect student privacy, we have reminded staff of the legal protections surrounding student data. Federal and state laws provide strong protections for student information, ensuring that personal data cannot be disclosed without proper legal authority.

 

We understand these events may create fear or uncertainty, but we encourage students to continue attending school and focusing on their education. Knowledge is a powerful tool, and interested families can learn more by accessing resources and understanding their rights at www.cuhsd.org/CommunityResources.

Sincerely,

Un Mensaje de Apoyo para Todas Nuestras Familias de CUHSD

22 de enero de 2025

Estimado Comunidad de CUHSD,

 

Ayer, la nueva administración federal puso fin a las directrices que anteriormente protegían a las escuelas, centros de salud y lugares religiosos de las acciones de control migratorio por parte de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE, por sus siglas en inglés) y Protección Fronteriza (CBP, por sus siglas en inglés). Aunque estoy profundamente decepcionado por esta decisión, quiero recordarles a nuestra comunidad que nuestro distrito sigue comprometido a mantener nuestras escuelas como espacios seguros para todos los estudiantes y familias, independientemente de su estatus migratorio.

 

Es importante entender que, aunque las autoridades migratorias ahora pueden tener la opción de realizar arrestos en las escuelas, no pueden ingresar libremente a los campus ni moverse por ellos sin limitaciones. Nuestro personal ha sido capacitado para seguir los procedimientos establecidos, incluyendo requerir a las autoridades migratorias que presenten órdenes judiciales válidas y asegurarse de que se respeten los límites legales.

 

El personal escolar no recopila ni mantiene información sobre el estatus migratorio de los estudiantes o sus familias. Para proteger aún más la privacidad de los estudiantes, hemos recordado al personal las protecciones legales en torno a los datos estudiantiles. Las leyes federales y estatales ofrecen fuertes protecciones para la información de los estudiantes, asegurando que los datos personales no se puedan divulgar sin la autoridad legal correspondiente.

 

Entendemos que estos eventos pueden generar miedo o incertidumbre, pero animamos a los estudiantes a que continúen asistiendo a la escuela y enfocándose en su educación. El conocimiento es una herramienta poderosa, y las familias interesadas pueden obtener más información accediendo a recursos y entendiendo sus derechos en www.cuhsd.org/CommunityResources 

 

Atentamente,
