Broward County Public Schools issued a statement to principals on Monday, updating them on how their schools should respond to changes to federal immigration policy.
The school district reaffirmed their commitment to privacy per a federal law called the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, or FERPA.
“Recent changes to federal immigration policies have raised questions about their potential impact on our schools,” the letter reads in part. “In addition, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has convened a special legislative session on immigration, scheduled to take place this week in Tallahassee. We are closely monitoring these developments and their implications for our schools and communities.”
