Immigration Resources for Educators & Families

Considering recent national discussions on immigration policies, we understand that many of you may feel confused or concerned about the future. We want to assure you that you are welcome and supported here.

All children have a right to equal access to free public education, regardless of their or their parents’/guardians’ immigration status and the Napa County Office of Education is committed to providing all students access to a safe learning experience. Under California law, school officials are not required to allow immigration agents to enter schools without a judicial warrant, according to recent guidance issued by California Attorney General Rob Bonta. Additionally, we do not collect information about the immigration status of our students or their families, and we are dedicated to protecting the confidentiality and personal information of our student community.

As indicated in our strategic plan, we are committed to building a culture of inclusion and connectedness allowing us to grow and learn better together. Our community and classrooms are strengthened by our diversity and thrive because of our inclusivity.

We want you to know that we stand together with many other county agencies in affirming our commitment to protect the rights of students.
