Supporting our Immigrant Community
Dear Students, Parents and Educators:
You may have read recent media reports about the potential for a surge of immigration enforcement activity and deployment of the National Guard to the Bay Area.
There is continued uncertainty over the potential for an increase in immigration enforcement activity. This is an evolving situation that has caused reported feelings of uncertainty, fear and anxiety.
SMUHSD schools are open and will remain open. School is a safe place, and we remain committed to supporting all students regardless of their immigration status.
