If Fairfax County Public Schools refuses to drop DEI, allow men in women’s sports, and continues sanctuary policies by not working with ICE, then losing Title 1 funding is on them. They were warned.

Let’s be honest, a big chunk of that funding goes toward supporting students tied to undocumented families. If the county cooperated with ICE and enforced immigration laws, a lot of that population would be out of the system, and the need for Title 1 would drop significantly.

My recommendation? Follow the law, stop the political games, and focus on real education. If they won’t, then redirect that money to schools that do.

The Supreme Court determined that school's have to educate all students, undocumented or not. Plyler vs Doe 1982. So FCPS is following the law

Correct but there isn't anything saying you can't report undocumented immigrants to ice, feel free to educate but they MUST report for deport.

They have to give them an education. They do not have to make ESOL/FARMS kids the priority to the extent they do, while shortchanging MC/UMC kids. They act like it’s a given that the people who pay more taxes should keep heavily subsidizing other people’s kids. Add to that the threat of redistricting, and it’s a classic case of killing the geese who lay the golden eggs.

I'm one of those trailing spouse teachers, and I'm very worried about this. Military family and just returned to the area, and my spouse's retirement is looming. I was just hired by FCPS for next year (I've taught for FCPS in the past), but I'm very anxious. I'm not sure if people really grasp all of the second and third order effects of all of this.

He already said in another article that they lost the nurse at the county jail when her husband decided to take an early retirement and they left for a cheaper state, something like that. And that’s a hard position to fill.
