Milpitas Unified highlights AB49 and SB98 protections limiting immigration enforcement on campuses
Summary
A board member told the Milpitas Unified board that California laws AB49 and SB98, recently signed by the governor, restrict immigration-enforcement activities on school grounds — including warrant requirements, limits on officer access to nonpublic areas, restrictions on staff sharing student information, and mandatory notification if immigration agents are confirmed on campus.
A board member at the Milpitas Unified School District summarized newly enacted California laws — AB49 and SB98 — and described how the district will treat immigration-enforcement activity on campus.
The speaker said the laws prohibit school employees from allowing officers into nonpublic areas of school offices or campuses and require a judicial warrant for officers to obtain information about a student. The speaker also said the laws restrict staff from sharing information about a student without that student's parent or guardian's permission and require school officials to confirm and immediately notify parents, guardians and school staff if immigration agents are confirmed on campus.
The speaker attributed the enactment to the governor, using the name pronounced in the transcript; the official signing was reported in the board update. (Transcript pronunciation appeared as "Nuome"; the governor is Gov. Gavin Newsom.) The board presentation did not include legal analysis or a district policy memo in the recorded segment; the speaker presented the laws as recent changes the district will follow.
No motion or formal board action on district policy was recorded in the transcript during this segment; the item was presented as an informational summary of state law.
