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.

Putting aside how unworkable this is for a lot of reasons (including, how is it the school's job or expertise to figure out immigration status) I do not believe for a minute that a reduction in school population would result in more money for the remaining students. That's a fantasy.

FCPS spent $124 million on ESOL last year alone. That money can be spent elsewhere.

I’ve a feeling the feds would still find a reason to withhold funding even if they did these things.

I have to ask. Which schools have had boys on girls’ teams? Which sports?

I have to ask. What’s your feeling based on?

Extortion. Trump has a history of it. He’s doing it now to law firms, news outlets and universities. Why wouldn’t he do the same to public k-12 schools?

ICE does not belong in schools.
