Immigration – Education Law

U.S. immigration policy has significant impacts on school districts, both as employers and educators, and the seemingly constant fluctuations in this area of law require adept legal guidance. We assist school districts with navigating visa programs for foreign employees, understanding the impact of immigration law on student residency, and fulfilling federal and state mandates for record and data collection without creating civil rights concerns based on a “chilling effect” on immigrant families, among many other immigration issues that arise in schools. Our goal is to demystify the laws and regulations in this area so that schools can focus on educating students without concern of violations.
