California State PTA expresses urgent concern about immigration enforcement tactics that threaten the educational well-being of all children in California schools.
In January 2025, the federal government rescinded policies that protected schools from immigration enforcement actions. Since then, immigration agents have attempted to access school grounds, appeared in school parking lots, and conducted enforcement near educational facilities throughout California. Reports document agents targeting children at elementary schools, in school drop-off areas, during field trips, and at graduation ceremonies. Of particular concern, these enforcement actions increasingly involve masked agents in plain clothes who refuse to properly identify themselves, creating additional fear and confusion for children, families, and school staff.
These enforcement tactics create fear that fundamentally undermines children’s ability to learn and thrive. An estimated 1 million children, one out of every six, in California have at least one undocumented parent, but the impact extends far beyond these families. Educators report that 92% of K-12 teachers state that enforcement concerns have impacted their overall classroom climate, directly and indirectly affecting all students’ ability to learn. The trauma and anxiety created by immigration enforcement in schools creates a ripple effect that diminishes the educational experience for all students, regardless of their immigration status. They also hamper the creation of the positive, constructive relationships between families and schools that are essential for a strong, inclusive school community.
Schools must be safe spaces for learning where every child can thrive, not places of fear. When immigration enforcement occurs at schools—particularly involving masked, unidentified agents—it impacts all students by:
California has responded with state legislation and Attorney General guidance to protect students, but federal action is needed to fully safeguard educational environments.
The California State PTA calls upon the federal government to:
Every child in every classroom deserves to attend school without fear. Education is a constitutional right, and schools are sacred spaces for learning and growth for all students. The California State PTA will continue to advocate for policies that prioritize the educational welfare of every child, foster family engagement, and ensures that all students can reach their full potential in safe, supportive learning environments.
The time for action is now—every day we delay is another day children lose access to the fear-free education that is fundamental to their development and our community’s future.
The California State PTA represents over 500,000 members working to positively impact the lives of all children and families.
La PTA del Estado de California expresa su urgente preocupación por las tácticas de Control de la ley de Inmigración que amenazan el bienestar educativo de todos los niños en las escuelas de California.
En enero de 2025, el gobierno federal derogó las políticas que protegían a las escuelas de las medidas de control migratorio. Desde entonces, agentes de inmigración han intentado acceder a las instalaciones escolares, se han presentado en los estacionamientos escolares y han realizado operativos de control cerca de centros educativos en toda California. Los informes documentan la presencia de agentes que se enfocan en niños en escuelas primarias, en las zonas donde los niños arriban a la escuela, durante las excursiones escolares y en las ceremonias de graduación. Es especialmente preocupante que estas medidas de control involucren cada vez más a agentes enmascarados vestidos de civil que se niegan a identificarse adecuadamente, lo que genera mayor temor y confusión en los niños, las familias y el personal escolar.
Estas tácticas de control generan temor que mina fundamentalmente la capacidad de los niños para aprender y prosperar. Se estima que un millón de niños, uno de cada seis, en California tiene al menos un padre indocumentado, pero el impacto se extiende mucho más allá de estas familias. Los educadores informan que el 92 % del profesorado de primaria y secundaria afirma que las preocupaciones sobre el control de la ley han afectado el clima general del aula, afectando directa e indirectamente la capacidad de aprendizaje de todos los estudiantes. El trauma y la ansiedad que generan las medidas de control migratorio en las escuelas tienen un efecto dominó que perjudica la experiencia educativa de todos los estudiantes, independientemente de su estatus migratorio. Además, dificultan el desarrollo de relaciones positivas y constructivas entre las familias y las escuelas, esenciales para una comunidad escolar sólida e inclusiva.
Las escuelas deben ser espacios seguros de aprendizaje donde todos los niños puedan prosperar, no lugares de miedo. Cuando se aplican medidas de control migratorio en las escuelas, en particular con agentes enmascarados y no identificados, impacta a todos los estudiantes al:
California ha respondido con legislación estatal y directrices del Fiscal General para proteger a los estudiantes, pero se necesita la acción federal para salvaguardar plenamente los entornos educativos.
La PTA del Estado de California hace un llamado al gobierno federal a.
Todos los niños en todas las aulas merecen asistir a la escuela sin miedo. La educación es un derecho constitucional, y las escuelas son espacios sagrados para el aprendizaje y el crecimiento de todos los estudiantes. La PTA del Estado de California seguirá abogando por políticas que prioricen el bienestar educativo de cada niño, fomenten la participación familiar y garanticen que todos los estudiantes puedan alcanzar su máximo potencial en entornos de aprendizaje seguros y de apoyo.
Es hora de actuar ya – cada día que demoramos es un día más que los niños pierdan el acceso a una educación sin miedo, fundamental para su desarrollo y el futuro de nuestra comunidad.
La PTA del Estado de California representa a más de 500,000 miembros que trabajan para impactar positivamente las vidas de todos los niños y familias.
