Potential Impacts of Increased Immigration Enforcement on School Attendance and Funding

Summary
The U.S. has over 47 million immigrants, and their children play a significant role in education, healthcare, and tax contributions. However, the federal government's increased immigration restrictions and some state proposals to verify immigration status in schools could negatively impact children from immigrant families. Many of these children are fearful of attending school due to immigration enforcement, leading to declines in school attendance and academic performance.

These attendance declines may also affect school funding, as U.S. public schools are primarily funded based on student attendance or enrollment numbers. States like California and Texas, where many children live in immigrant families, could see a decrease in funding due to higher absenteeism or long-term disenrollment. Schools in these states may be particularly vulnerable to funding cuts if attendance is the key factor in determining their budgets.

In response, some schools are preparing safety plans, providing legal rights information, and addressing the concerns of immigrant families. Ultimately, the intensified immigration enforcement could have long-term consequences not only on children's education but also on school funding in areas with large immigrant populations.
