"What’s been on my mind is how this immigration crisis is impacting the classroom, impacting students, educators, families who are just trying to come to school to learn, to be safe, to feel like they are in a safe place and protected. And what we can do to help support these students and families and create an even safer community for them. It impacts our community at the school, and it also impacts funding for the schools."
