San Francisco students return to school amid mixed emotions of fear and excitement, with a red carpet welcome at the Willie L. Brown Jr. School. The school district faces a significant $59 million deficit, causing anxiety over potential budget cuts and school closures. Alongside these concerns, families worry about possible Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids due to the current political climate. City officials, including Mayor Daniel Lurie and Superintendent Maria Su, reassured families that San Francisco is a sanctuary city committed to their safety and education.
SFUSD is a sanctuary district, in a sanctuary city, that is within a sanctuary state. We are working very closely with our city leaders... to make sure our students, our families and our educators are safe.
We want you to know that your teachers, your principal here, they are so excited to take care of you, to make sure that you learn, that you focus on your studies.
I graduated from here too, so it's cool to see my daughter graduate from here,
There's a mix of fear and excitement as students arrive for the first day of school amidst concerns over a $59 million budget deficit and potential ICE raids.
