Board adopts AB 49-mandated updates on immigration-enforcement procedures and student-record protections
Summary
To meet a March 1 statutory deadline, the board adopted policy and AR updates required by Assembly Bill 49 covering campus procedures for immigration enforcement, reporting expectations, protections for educational and personnel records, and guardian protocols for detained parents.
Dr. Martin Casas presented administrative and board-policy revisions to align district practice with Assembly Bill 49. The updates instruct staff to ask for a judicial subpoena, warrant or court order before permitting immigration-enforcement agents to enter campus and direct staff not to impede or obstruct if an agency proceeds without those documents. The ARs also require reporting incidents to the board and affected families and emphasize protections for educational and personnel records.
Board members clarified that the district has not experienced Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity on campus and voiced support for the policy adoption to reassure families. The board took a roll call and adopted the AB 49-related changes so the district will be in compliance by the March 1 deadline.
