A federal judge has ruled against the Denver public schools system’s attempts to block immigration officials from carrying out raids on school grounds, marking a win for the Trump administration as it looks to ramp up its deportation efforts.
U.S. District Judge Daniel Domenico said Denver Public Schools failed to prove that a recent drop in student attendance at schools was due to the Trump administration reversing a 2021 Biden-era policy of protecting schools — and other sensitive areas like churches — from ICE raids. There are currently more than 1.4 million individuals on ICE's final order of removal docket.
Denver Public Schools filed a federal lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem for reversing the policy, claiming the district was "hindered in fulfilling its mission" to students who didn’t turn up to school for fear of immigration enforcement.
Denver Public Schools had sought a preliminary injunction barring the federal government from making arrests at sensitive locations, which was denied. Domenico also denied a request that he grant a nationwide preliminary injunction forcing immigration officials to revert to the 2021 guidance.
Besides a drop in attendance, Denver Public Schools said it had to divert resources to respond to fear among students and families over the lifting of longtime rules.
The school system also argued that rescinding the policy had caused schools to devote time and resources to teaching students and staff how to remain safe from immigration enforcement. Denver Public Schools has trained staff on how to handle ICE officers if they show up at school, telling them to deny agents entry if they don't have a warrant signed by a judge.

A school is not private property, they cannot deny police access in the performance of their duties. They can deny access to a personal lockers but not the school.
Most Administrators and Teachers are morons.
What kind of bullshit is this?
Here in Blue State Land, school departments have announced policies that sound like the endless stall: stopping ICE at the front door, alerting the administrative heads of the departments and waiting for them to be able to review and confirm the validity of ICE’s paperwork, etc.
Better bring several hundred buses when they get around to Maryland school systems...
If ICE had been around during the past few elections in Maryland, there would have been a need for hundreds of buses at the polling locations...
3 of my kids graduated from a high school near Seattle. Majority population? Illegal aliens.
Each graduation ceremony was centered on wokeness and evils of racism.
It's a good start.
It's the democRAT criminal kind.
So they teach them to oppose federal agents by example and by training them, taking precious educational time away from anti-American indoctrination, teaching that America is on stolen land, and teaching them somebody owes them free welfare and health care under socialism. Last, if any time left over, to teach reading comprehension skills, math and science. If any time left.
RE: Denver Public Schools has trained staff on how to handle ICE officers if they show up at school, telling them to deny agents entry....
So will they throw their bodies down ahead of the agents?
Throw a steel chair at them like in a wrestling match?
On several episodes of FBI (current series) the perps defy them and say “You can’t do this” (enter their drug packaging rooms or where they kidnapped a child) and the agent says “As a matter of fact, we can.”
Well class. We have some visitors coming to see us today!
(Two aides translate)
“Si senorita Landers?”
ICE walks in
“Aye yi yi yi!” Ninos vamoose out the puertas
Hire BOUNTY HUNTERS and swarm an area. 5 Grand for every illegal caught.
“The school system also argued that rescinding the policy had caused schools to devote time and resources to teaching students and staff how to remain safe from immigration enforcement.”
So they admitted to committing multiple felonies?
L
If the schools want illegals so badly then teach them for FREE. Colleges too. Professors want socialism then teach for free.
They need to make that 140 million.
"teaching students and staff how to remain safe from immigration enforcement"
Yep.
More students = more $$$$$$$$
Oh, yeah...Denver, California...OOPS I meant Colorado.
No, I didn’t. Early April Fools.
