Border crisis hits classrooms as unaccompanied minors flood NY schools
NY Post ^ | October 30, 2021 11:29am Updated | By Kerry J. Byrne Susan Edelman

America’s crisis at the border is now a crisis in New York public schools.

The Biden Administration is flooding New York City and Long Island communities with thousands of unaccompanied immigrant minors captured crossing the Mexico-US border, often arriving here, as The Post recently reported, via clandestine flights in the middle of the night.

The arrival of these children, mostly teenage boys, in local schools is creating a classroom crisis that is strapping educational resources, costing taxpayers millions in un-budgeted dollars, and aiding gang-recruiting efforts, argue parents, teachers and immigration experts.

“We’re at maxed capacity for kids with special needs, but they’ll keep sending them,” lamented one high school teacher in Queens, among the communities hardest hit by the illegal-immigrant student dump.

New York City and Long Island are hotspots for shipping children rounded up illegally crossing the border without guardians, according to recent US Department of Health and Human Services data.

Fifteen counties nationwide have received more than 1,000 unaccompanied children caught at the border over the past year, reported HHS. The top five counties on the list are all in Texas, California and south Florida.

But four of those 15 counties are right here in New York: Suffolk (1,528), Queens (1,314), Nassau (1,064) and Brooklyn (1,046). The Bronx nearly made the list, with 461 unaccompanied students. New York is the only state in America with four counties receiving more than 1,000 unaccompanied minors, despite its 1,700-mile distance from the southern border.

Rodriguez-Engberg, whose group helps enroll the newcomers in city schools, said gang concerns are overblown.

“All the students we serve are very eager to be in school and waiting for the enrollment to happen so they can get their lives together,” she said.

“Border crisis hits classrooms as unaccompanied minors flood NY schools”

Send them to this school: “New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has unveiled a plan to phase out his city’s Gifted and Talented program at public elementary schools, which often served as a springboard to the elite schools his own kids attended.”

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

"New York City and Long Island are hotspots for shipping children rounded up illegally crossing the border without guardians..."

Wait a second there. Aren't Donks concerned that these poor little children are separated from their families? Shouldn't they be working hard to re-unite them with their families?

Or do they keep them separated intentionally so the families can collect their half million?
