Join us on March 4 for our Virtual Citywide Townhall: “Immigration, ICE, and Know Your Rights.” This conversation will bring together diverse panelists: immigration attorneys, lawmakers, educators, parents, and community leaders to provide accurate information, clarify rights, and answer pressing questions impacting our students and families.

Together, we will share resources, discuss protections, and ensure our community feels informed, empowered, and supported during these uncertain times.

Please note that the regularly scheduled staff meeting on Wednesday is cancelled in a showing of support by Dr. Vitti so that all members may participate in the Townhall. We strongly encourage students, parents, district staff, and community members to join this important conversation and be part of the collective effort to stay informed, prepared and at the ready to be of help in the event of a crisis.

Please scan the QR code or type the link to take you to the registration form. The Zoom link will be emailed to you before the event.
