As President-Elect Donald Trump promises a mass deportation effort — starting in cities like Springfield, Ohio, and Aurora, Colorado — Denver Public Schools (DPS) leaders vow to protect their immigrant students.
During a work session meeting on November 7, DPS Board of Education member Scott Esserman addressed the crowd, saying the board is committed to the safety and security of immigrant students.
“If you are a student who is undocumented or a family who is undocumented, we will take care of you. That is our responsibility; we’re here to do that. I think it’s important that you hear that,” Esserman said during the work session.
