Murillo, Marco A.; Quartz, Karen Hunter; Garcia, Leyda W.; Liboon, Christine Abagat
AERA Open, v7 n1 Jan-Dec 2021
Scholarship on the intersection between immigration, legal status, and education has grown over the past decade. Given that schools are intended to be purveyors of democratic values, schools represent an ideal context to examine how immigration and legal status are considered in a community that aims to support the academic and social success of all students This study investigates how members of an urban, K-12 school community in California addressed immigration issues over nearly a decade-long period. The study details three ways in which the school addressed immigration status issues across time. They include college-going supports, addressing newcomer/unaccompanied students' needs, and delivery of legal services. The study's implications highlight how K-12 schools can address immigration issues in intentional, ethical, and supportive ways.
