Scoop: Denver outlines school lockdown rules for possible ICE raids
Denver Public Schools is bracing for possible immigration raids on students and directing principals to lock down campuses if federal immigration agents come knocking.
Why it matters: President-elect Trump has pledged the "largest deportation" in U.S. history and suggested rolling back long-standing policies that restrict immigration enforcement in sensitive locations, like schools.
By the numbers: DPS enrolled more than 4,700 immigrant students from Venezuela, Colombia and Mexico last year, the Denver Post reports.
The latest: Superintendent Alex Marrero issued guidance to principals this week after staff and families raised concerns about potential Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) presence on school grounds.
