Dyslexia Guidelines Work Group Information about the Dyslexia Guidelines Work Group members, archived meetings, current law, and related documents and organizations.
Background
Assembly Bill (AB) 1369, Statutes of 2015, requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to develop and to complete in time for use no later than the beginning of the 2017-18 academic year, program guidelines for dyslexia. The guidelines will be used to assist regular education teachers, special education teachers, and parents to identify and assess pupils with dyslexia, and to plan, provide, evaluate, and improve educational services to pupils with dyslexia.
For purposes of writing the guidelines, the bill also requires the California Department of Education (CDE) to consult with teachers, school administrators, other educational professionals, medical professionals, parents, and other professionals involved in the identification and education of pupils with dyslexia. A list of currently established meeting dates is available below.
In addition, the CDE has created an e-mail box through which the public can send questions or comments pertaining to the dyslexia guidelines. That e-mail address is Dyslexia@cde.ca.gov.
The full text of AB 1369 is available on the California Legislative Information Web site .

BEHAVIOR DOCTOR SEMINAR
During this two-day training, Dr. Riffel will share the ten tenets that govern behavior. Once we have an understanding of where behavior comes from and what it is communicating to us, we can make a proactive plan. On Day One, Dr. Riffel will share ideas for universal screening to determine who needs tier two and tier three interventions. She will share a simple and free tool you can download and use with your whole school. Next, she will focus on braiding classroom management by teaching the core components necessary for a good proactive plan. Laura has developed a simple tool to plan a change for a targeted behavior. It is called the Triple T- Triple R Chart. You will learn how to Revise the environment, Replace the behavior, and Reframe your response (Triple R) based on the Trigger, Target, and impacT (Triple T). The first day will end with a discussion about building a repository of interventions within your school.
On the second day, we will take the Triple T- Triple R Chart and apply it to the following topics (a) anxiety, (b) apathy, (c) argumentative behaviors, (d) bully, (e) disorganization, (f) disruptive outbursts, (g) homework issues, (i) impulsiveness, (j) inattentiveness, (k) non-compliance, (l) off-task behaviors, (m) self-esteem issues, (n) sensory issues, (o) tantrums, and (p) tardies. The day will end with the sharing of a 32-page section in the booklet of how to use literature to teach social skills.

California Scale-Up MTSS Statewide (SUMS) Initiative
I. INTRODUCTION
A. Purpose
The Orange County Department of Education (OCDE) is accepting applications from Local Education Agencies (LEA) for the California Scale-Up MTSS Statewide (SUMS) Initiative Technical Assistance (TA) training grants. Funds in the amount of $10 million have been awarded as part of Assembly Bill 104, Chapter 13, Statutes of 2015, for scaling up of the utilization of Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS). An additional $20 million, appropriated by Senate Bill 828, Chapter 29, Statutes 2016, augments the original grant award of $10 million. A combined total of $18 million from the award and its augmentation will be awarded to LEAs in sub-agreements to assist in scaling up MTSS. The term LEA refers to public school districts, public charter schools, and County Offices of Education (COEs) for the purposes of this Request for Applications (RFA). The grant funding will be distributed into three separate cohorts with up to $6 million being awarded in each round of applications.
Orange County Department of Education SUMS RFA Final
1 rev. 2-15-17
Applicants may apply for one-time funding as a single LEA for up to $25,000 or as a consortium--two or more LEAs applying jointly (one application) but one LEA must act as the lead for up to $50,000.
The funds for this initiative must be encumbered (budgeted and planned for expending) by June 30, 2018, but may be expended through June 30, 2020. Awardees in Cohort 1 agree to provide outcome data through June 30, 2020, even if funds are expended prior to that date. Subsequent Cohorts (2 and 3) will be required to provide outcome data for three years.
The 2015-16 Budget Act appropriation for the work of this application is a response to recommendations from the March 2015 California Statewide Special Education Task Force Report, One System Reforming Education to Serve All Students (http://www.smcoe.org/about-smcoe/statewide-special-education-task-force/). The report cited a critical need for one coherent system of education delivered through an MTSS framework in order to align the many educational systems and services in California that remain uncoordinated, contributing in particular to a special education system that is isolated.
Statewide MTSS allows a clear framework for the creation and alignment of a coherent system of education at the state level, designed to benefit all students by serving as a mechanism for aligning and integrating key state and local initiatives such as the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), implementation of the California State Standards, Results-Driven Accountability (RDA), and the work of the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence (CCEE).
The primary goal of this initiative is to implement and scale new and existing MTSS practices using an evidence-based continuous improvement process. Awardees will work to develop, align, and improve academic and behavioral resources, programs, supports, and services utilizing a coherent MTSS framework that engages all systems leading to improved student outcomes.
To accomplish the overarching goal of supporting and scaling up MTSS in California, successful applicants will develop, improve upon, and expand LEA resources for integrating, aligning, and improving LEA and school-wide, data-driven systems of academic, social-emotional, and behavioral supports. These improved systems will help to inform instructional decision making regarding strategies, supports, and services necessary for all students to succeed and also include meaningful and authentic family and community engagement.
B. Assumptions
California’s MTSS as an integrated, comprehensive framework aligns academic, behavioral, and social-emotional learning in one coherent system of support. MTSS offers the potential to create needed systematic change through intentional design and
Orange County Department of Education SUMS RFA Final
2 rev. 2-15-17 redesign of services and supports to quickly identify and match to the needs of all students.
A well-designed MTSS framework creates the overarching structure at all levels of the organization for delivering the most effective, proactive system of instruction. This system will address the diverse academic and behavioral needs of all students so they can succeed, not only in school, but also reach their college, career, and civic life goals.
California’s vast and complex PreK-12 educational system requires a multi-faceted approach that is scalable and sustainable. The California Department of Education’s (CDE) vision of “one coherent system of education” offers an opportunity to build the foundation for long-term educational excellence. Through the use of Implementation Science (IS), Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and the Whole Child approach, among other evidence-based interventions, MTSS allows for the integration of all such efforts into one system to the benefit of all students.
Awardees will use evidence-based technical assistance practices to improve student outcomes (all students, all subgroups). With the district (LEA) as the point of intervention, school-wide transformation and improved student outcomes become sustainable after incremental TA resources are gone. District leadership, through this MTSS effort, understands that transformation is not an event, but a process that occurs over time in stages that may overlap and be revisited as circumstances change. See Figure 2.
The district works with schools to develop and articulate both a vision and set of practices that set the course of implementation. Districts work in concert with families and the community at large to achieve and sustain their vision.
Awardees will work in partnership with the Orange County Department of Education (OCDE). Technical Assistance provided through OCDE in partnership with the CDE, the Butte County Office of Education (Butte COE), the Schoolwide Integrated Framework for Transformation (SWIFT) Education Center, and statewide COEs will be the source of technical support for districts to install, implement, and sustain the MTSS framework as well as to scale up evidenced-based practices within their schools. Transformed educational systems emerge from the work of the people who are most knowledgeable about the students and local culture and values-that is, the educators already in the system, and the families and others who live in the community.
Funds are for technical assistance to: (1) start from a place of knowledge; (2) capitalize upon strengths possessed; and (3) bolster/augment MTSS efforts in place.
Figures 1 and 2 indicate the domains and features supporting statewide MTSS and the whole system engagement utilized to realize MTSS implementation with fidelity.

PART 3 INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORTS AND RESOURCES CAA CALIFORNIA ALTERNATE ASSESSMENT Most universal tools, designated supports, and accommodations listed in Parts 1 and 2 are available for the California Alternate Assessments (CAAs) for ELA and mathematics through the online testing interface. However, because the CAAs are administered to students one-on-one by a test examiner and because they may also be administered in the “language of instruction,” some embedded resources are not provided. For the CAA Science Pilot, due to the design, any instructional supports used in daily instruction may be used for the embedded performance tasks. The following embedded resources are not available for CAA:
• Braille (either by means of an embosser or a refreshable display) * • Closed captioning • Text-to-Speech • American Sign Language videos (The test examiner is allowed to sign to the student as the language of instruction) • Translation glossaries • Spanish stacked translation and test directions (DELETED PER CDE MATRIX 1/2017)
* Test examiner can request print-on-demand functionality to produce such documents. For a handful of ELA items in Grades three and four that have decoding as part of the construct, support and guidance will be available to LEAs for brailing the appropriate text.
The “language of instruction” may include instructional or physical supports needed for communication and instruction. Some test practices (e.g., hand-over-hand), as noted in the Test Administration Manual, are inappropriate and not allowed. Examples of permissible instructional and physical supports include:
(1) INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORTS: • Alternate text to describe illustrations as needed • Allowing the student to use an augmentative communication device (e.g., Audiovox, switch) • Allowing nonverbal students to respond with gestures, movements, or vocalization in place of speech • Accepting eye gaze as a way of indicating a response • Accepting a change in muscle tone or a change in facial expression as an observed behavior • Allowing students to direct another person (aide or test examiner) in performing physical tasks • Allowing use of the student’s calculator, 100s number table, or other instructional supports instead of the embedded supports provided through the testing platform as long as those supports do not impact the test construct.

PART 4a INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORTS AND RESOURCES UNLISTED RESOURCES CALIFORNIA ALTERNATE ASSESSMENT Unlisted resources are not universal tools, designated supports, or accommodations. Unlisted resources shall be made available if specified in the eligible student’s individualized education program (IEP) or Section 504 plan and only on approval by the California Department of Education (CDE).
To request the use of an unlisted resource, the LEA CAASPP coordinator or CAASPP test site coordinator may submit a request through the Test Operations Management System (TOMS) a minimum of 10 business days before the student’s first day of testing. The CDE will reply to the request within four business days.
Approval of an unlisted resource that has not been previously identified (see Part 4b Identified Non-embedded Unlisted Resources) will be granted by the CDE on the basis of the IEP team’s and/or Section 504 plan’s designation and if the unlisted resource does not compromise the test’s security. The CDE shall make a determination of whether the requested unlisted resource changes the construct being measured after testing has been completed.
IEP teams should be made aware of the following regulation, although teams should not allow the impact of an LEA’s accountability to outweigh the needs of the student in making decisions related to accessibility supports. If the CDE determines the unlisted resource changes the construct being measured, the unlisted resource will not be approved but may still be used by the student and the student will receive an individual score report. The student will not be counted as participating in statewide testing, which will impact the accountability participation rate indicator for the LEA.” (Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations § 854.9)
The CDE and/or the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium has identified non-embedded unlisted resources for English language arts, mathematics, science, and primary language that change the construct being tested. The LEA may use the CAASPP Unlisted Resources Request form, available in TOMS, to request the use of these identified and other unlisted resources required by a student’s IEP or Section 504 plan.

®™ No. 17-04 F3 NewsFlash FEBRUARY 2017 Federal Guidance on Transgender Students Rescinded
Emphasizing that there must be “due regard for the primary role of the states and local school districts in establishing educational policy,” the U.S. Department of Education (“ED”) and the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) have withdrawn previously issued policy guidance regarding transgender students. Such guidance, issued in 2015 and 2016, had advised districts that Title IX provides transgender students the right to access restroom and locker room facilities that conform to their gender identities.
In a joint Dear Colleague Letter, released on February 22, 2017, the ED and DOJ stated that the prior How Does This Impact California? guidance was withdrawn “in order to further and more completely consider the legal issues involved” in the While this news means that issues related to wake of recent litigation regarding school restrooms transgender students will continue to be in the and locker rooms. national spotlight, the withdrawal of federal guidance does not impact—or in any way abrogate— The ED and DOJ emphasized, however, that “this California’s current laws affecting transgender withdrawal of these guidance documents does not students. It is likely that further light will be shed on this issue after the U.S. Supreme Court weighs in later leave students without protections from this year. discrimination, bullying, or harassment. All schools must ensure that all students, including LGBT students, are able to learn and thrive in a safe environment.”
Reacting to the revocation of federal guidelines, the California Department of Education issued a press release in which State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson reiterated his strong support for the rights of transgender students. The action by the federal government “does not roll back protections for California students and educators,” Torlakson stated. Specifically, Education Code section 221.5, subdivision (f), continues to require that students “be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions, and use facilities consistent with his or her gender identity, irrespective of the gender listed on the pupil’s records.” Section 221.5(f) will remain controlling law in California unless overturned by the courts or repealed through the voter referendum process.
Guidance from the U.S. Supreme Court is likely in 2017, as the Court accepted review of G.G. v. Gloucester Cty. Sch. Bd. (4th Cir. 2016) 822 F.3d 709, a case brought with support from the ACLU to challenge a school district’s refusal to allow a transgender student to use sex-segregated facilities consistent with the student’s gender identity.

00001-00001/3581849.1 association of california school administrators Undocumented Students and Families: The Facts Student Rights
What rights do undocumented students have? Undocumented students between the ages of 6-18 not only have a right to attend school in California, but are mandated to attend school pursuant to the compulsory attendance laws. (Educ. Code § 48200.) The U.S. Supreme Court has held that no state may deny access to a basic public education to any child residing within the state, whether residing in the U.S. legally or not. (Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202 (1982).) Further, all students have a right to be in a public school learning environment free from discrimination, harassment, bullying, violence, and intimidation. (Educ. Code §§ 220, 234 et seq.) What student information do schools currently collect, and would it provide insight into immigration status? School districts are not required to collect information regarding a student’s immigration or legal status, aside from the statuses of nonimmigrant, international students enrolled in an educational program under an F-1 or M-1 visa. Schools are only required to collect information to satisfy certain admission requirements, such as proof of residency, none which require the provision of proof of legal immigration status or social security numbers. (Educ. Code § 48204.1.) In addition, CDE collects information from school districts regarding their students’ country of birth through CALPADS in order to calculate the number of immigrant and English learner students in the state and to ensure compliance with the Title III provisions of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act. (Educ. Code § 60900.) What student information do we collect on adult education students? In particular cases, school districts are required to obtain information on their adult education students. For example, in counties where U.S. District Courts are located, the city or county superintendent of schools is required on a monthly basis to obtain the names of persons who have filed their intention to become citizens of the U.S. or their petitions for naturalization. (Educ. Code section § 52550.) The superintendent is then required to send notices to these individuals of the authorization the governing board has in providing classes in citizenship under particular circumstances. (Educ. Code § 52551 et seq.) If we receive a PRA request for student data, what information are we obligated to share and protect? FERPA supersedes the PRA and requires that the school district maintain the confidentiality of all personally identifiable information in education records related to students. (20 U.S.C. §1232g; 34 CFR § Part 99.) Any and all records, including emails, student files, and personnel information, are generally exempt from disclosure. All student records, including emails and cumulative student files, are generally exempt from disclosure or subject to redaction to prevent disclosure of personally identifiable information. Staff Rights
Must we allow ICE and other government authorities on campus? Depends. School districts have the right to limit the amount of disruption to the learning environment and to ensure the safety of their staff and students, which may include denying an individual from accessing a campus during school hours. (Educ. Code §§ 32212, 35160.) In the unlikely event that ICE or other government authorities decide to pursue immigration-related investigations on school campuses, school staff should follow appropriate district procedures applicable to any visitor on campus, which could include, but are not limited to: (1) requesting that the agent sign in at the front desk; (2) that the agent provide valid identification and statement of purpose; and (3) approval from the site administrator or Superintendent. Immediate access to the student should be given if the agent has a warrant or a court order. School districts that allow nonimmigrant, international students (who are in the U.S. under an F-1 or M-1 visa) to enroll in their programs through ICE’s “Student and Exchange Visitor Program” (“SEVP”) are subject to onsite visits from SEVP officials at any time and must provide officials with certain records on such students. (8 CFR § 214.3(g) and (h)(3)(iv).) The SEVP, however, does not have the authorization to review the records of students suspected of being undocumented. Are we required to allow ICE, police, or other government authorities to have access to student records? Access to student records should only be allowed if the requesting agency has a valid court order or subpoena in compliance with FERPA or immigration laws or regulations. (8 U.S.C. § 1225; 34 CFR § 99.31(a) (9)(i); Educ. Code §§ 49076; 49077.) The school district, however, must make reasonable efforts to notify the parent or eligible student in advance of disclosing the documents so that the parent or eligible student may seek protective action, unless the court order or subpoena relates to a federal jury investigation or law enforcement purpose, or relating to domestic or international terrorism. (34 CFR § 99.31(a)(9)(ii); Educ. Code § 49077.) In addition, the USA Patriot Act added an exception to FERPA to mandate the disclosure of educational records to a federal Attorney General or Assistant Attorney General through a judicial order based on an investigation of suspected terrorist activities. (20 U.S.C. § 1232g(j).) Parent Rights All parents, irrespective of their legal status, have a right to participate in their children’s education and are encouraged to do so. Proof of legal residency is not a prerequisite to the enrollment of their children in school. Are undocumented parents required to undergo fingerprinting in order to volunteer at school? School districts may vary in their fingerprinting policies for volunteers. Some require that all volunteers undergo fingerprinting, while others only require the fingerprinting of parent volunteers where the volunteer is not under the direct supervision of a District staff member. Parents should be reassured that the purpose of the fingerprinting requirement is confidential, solely for the use of the District to ensure the safety of students and staff (i.e. that the volunteer has not been convicted of a sex or drug offense with a minor). If a parent is in custody as the result of an immigration enforcement, are districts required to release the student to ICE or other immigration officials? No. School districts are not required to release students into the custody of ICE if their parent is in custody as the result of an immigration enforcement action. Parents with such concerns should make advance arrangements with relatives or friends to ensure that their children are released to an authorized caregiver or adult, and should ensure that school districts are aware of this arrangement in the emergency information card submitted to schools. Sanctuary District
What legal protection does a “sanctuary district” offer students? While establishing a school district as a “sanctuary” may set forth its policy to protect undocumented students by limiting the enforcement of—or declining to enforce—immigration laws, there is no further legal protection for residents/students as the result of this status. The school district, however, will be able to utilize the extent of its discretion authorized by law by establishing policies and procedures to ensure the security of its students, such as creating appropriate limits to immigration officials’ visits to school and disallowing staff to ask questions about a student’s or parent’s immigration status. If a district passes a resolution to become a sanctuary district, is it at risk of losing federal funds? It is unknown at this time whether sanctuary school districts are at risk of losing federal funds at the result of their status. President Trump has stated during his campaign that he would block federal funding to sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration officials, but it is currently unknown if he will indeed proceed with this policy—or any other similar policies relating to funding of public schools who also declare themselves sanctuary sites—or what priority this policy will be placed.

Los estudiantes indocumentados entre las edades de 6-18 no sólo tienen el derecho a asistir a la escuela en California, sino también están obligados a asistir a la escuela de conformidad con las leyes de asistencia obligatoria. (Código de Educación § 48200). La Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos ha determinado que ningún estado puede negar el acceso a una educación pública básica a cualquier niño que resida dentro del estado, así resida legalmente o no en los Estados Unidos. (Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202 (1982).) Además, todos los estudiantes tienen el derecho de estar en un ambiente de aprendizaje en una escuela pública libre de discriminación, hostigamiento, acoso (o bullying, por su nombre en inglés), violencia e intimidación. (Código de Educación §§ 220, 234 y siguientes.) ¿Qué información estudiantil colectan o recaudan actualmente las escuelas, y proporcionaría información sobre el estado migratorio? Los distritos escolares no están obligados a recopilar información sobre el estado migratorio o legal de un estudiante, más allá del estado de estudiantes internacionales matriculados en un programa educativo bajo una visa no inmigrante F-1 o M-1. Las escuelas sólo están obligadas a recopilar información para satisfacer ciertos requisitos de admisión, como prueba de residencia en el distrito, que no requieren que el estudiante proporcione pruebas de estado migratorio legal, lugar de nacimiento, o números de seguro social. (Código de Educación § 48204.1.) Además, el Departamento de Educación de California (CDE, por sus siglas en inglés) recopila información de los distritos escolares con respecto al país de nacimiento de sus estudiantes a través de CALPADS para calcular el número de estudiantes inmigrantes y de aprendizaje de inglés en el estado y para garantizar el cumplimiento con las disposiciones del Título III de La Ley Federal de Cada Estudiante Triunfa. (Código de Educación § 60900.) ¿Qué información estudiantil recopilamos sobre los estudiantes de educación de adultos? En casos particulares, los distritos escolares están obligados a obtener información sobre sus estudiantes de educación de adultos. Por ejemplo, en los condados donde están ubicadas las Cortes de Distrito de los Estados Unidos (U.S. District Courts, por su nombre en inglés), el superintendente de escuelas de la ciudad o del condado está obligado a obtener mensualmente los nombres de las personas que han presentado su intención para hacerse ciudadanos de los Estados Unidos o sus peticiones de naturalización. (Código de Educación § 52550.) El superintendente esta entonces obligado a enviar avisos a estas personas de la autorización que la Junta Educativa tiene en proveer clases de ciudadanía bajo circunstancias particulares. (Código de Educación § 52551 y siguientes.) ¿Si recibimos una solicitud bajo la Ley de Registros Públicos (PRA, por sus siglas en inglés) para recibir datos de los estudiantes, qué información estamos obligados a compartir y proteger? La Ley de Privacidad y Derechos Educativos de la Familia (FERPA, por sus siglas en inglés) reemplaza y substituye a la Ley de Registros Públicos y requiere que el distrito escolar mantenga la confidencialidad de toda la información personalmente identificable en los registros educativos relacionados con los estudiantes. (20 U.S.C. §1232g; 34 CFR § Parte 99.) Cualquier y todos los registros, incluyendo correos electrónicos, archivos de los estudiantes y la información del personal, están generalmente exentos de divulgación. Todos los registros de los estudiantes, incluyendo correos electrónicos y archivos acumulativos de estudiantes, están generalmente exentos de divulgación o sujetos a redacción para impedir la divulgación de información personalmente identificable. Derechos del Personal ¿Debemos permitir el acceso a el Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE, por sus siglas en inglés) y otras autoridades gubernamentales en el campus? Depende. Los distritos escolares tienen el derecho de limitar la cantidad de interrupción al ambiente de aprendizaje y garantizar la seguridad de su personal y estudiantes, lo que puede incluir negarle a una persona el acceso al campus escolar durante las horas escolares. (Código Educativo §§ 32212, 35160.) En el improbable caso de que ICE u otras autoridades gubernamentales decidan llevar a cabo investigaciones relacionadas con la inmigración en el campus escolar, el personal escolar debe seguir los procedimientos apropiados del distrito aplicables a cualquier visitante en la escuela, lo cual podría incluir, pero no se limitan a: (1) solicitar que el agente firme en la recepción; (2) que el agente proporcione una identificación válida y declaración de propósito; y (3) aprobación del administrador del sitio o del Superintendente. Se debe dar acceso inmediato al estudiante si el agente tiene una orden judicial o una orden de la corte. Los distritos escolares que permiten que estudiantes internacionales no inmigrantes (aquellos que se encuentran en los Estados Unidos bajo una visa F-1 o M-1) se inscriban en sus programas a través del “Programa de Estudiantes y Visitantes de Intercambio” (SEVP, por sus siglas en inglés) de ICE están sujetos a las visitas en el sitio por parte de funcionarios de SEVP en cualquier momento y deben proporcionar a los funcionarios ciertos registros sobre esos estudiantes. (8 CFR § 214.3(g) y (h)(3)(iv)). Sin embargo, SEVP no tiene la autorización para revisar los registros de estudiantes sospechosos de ser indocumentados. ¿Estamos obligados a permitir que ICE, la policía u otras autoridades gubernamentales tengan acceso a los registros de los estudiantes? El acceso a los registros de los estudiantes sólo debe ser permitido si la agencia solicitante tiene una orden judicial o citación valida en conformidad con FERPA o leyes o regulaciones de inmigración. (8 U.S.C. § 1225; 34 CFR § 99.31(a) (9)(i); Código de Educación §§ 49076; 49077.) Sin embargo, el distrito escolar debe hacer esfuerzos razonables para notificar al padre o estudiante elegible antes de divulgar los documentos para que el padre o estudiante elegible pueda solicitar una acción protectora, a menos que la orden judicial o citación este relacionada con una investigación del gran jurado federal o propósito de una agencia de la ley o del orden público, o relacionada con el terrorismo nacional o internacional. (34 CFR § 99.31(a)(9)(ii); Código de Educación § 49077.) Además, la Ley Patriota de los Estados Unidos añadió una excepción a la ley de FERPA para requerir la divulgación de registros educativos a un Procurador General federal o Procurador General Asistente a través de una orden judicial basada en una investigación de sospechadas actividades terroristas. (20 U.S.C. § 1232g (j).) Derechos de los Padres Todos los padres, independientemente de su estado legal, tienen derecho a participar en la educación de sus hijos y son alentados a hacerlo. Prueba de residencia legal no es un requisito previo para la inscripción de sus hijos en la escuela. ¿Se requiere que los padres indocumentados se sometan a huellas dactilares para poder ser voluntarios en la escuela? Los distritos escolares pueden variar en sus políticas de huellas dactilares para los voluntarios. Algunos requieren que todos los voluntarios sometan huellas dactilares, mientras que otros sólo requieren la huella dactilar de padres voluntarios donde el voluntario no está bajo la supervisión directa de un miembro del personal del Distrito. Los padres deben estar seguros de que el propósito del requisito de huellas dactilares es confidencial, únicamente para el uso del distrito para asegurar la seguridad de los estudiantes y personal (es decir, que el voluntario no ha sido condenado por un delito sexual o de drogas con un menor). ¿Si un padre está bajo custodia como resultado de una acción de aplicación inmigratoria, están los distritos obligados a liberar o entregar al estudiante a ICE u otros funcionarios de inmigración? No. Los distritos escolares no están obligados a liberar o entregar a los estudiantes a la custodia de ICE si su padre está bajo custodia como resultado de una acción de inmigración. Los padres con tales preocupaciones deben hacer arreglos por adelantado con parientes o amigos para asegurarse que sus hijos sean puestos en libertad y entregados a un cuidador autorizado o adulto, y deben asegurarse de que los distritos escolares estén informados de este arreglo en la tarjeta de información de emergencia presentada a las escuelas. Distrito Santuario ¿Qué protección legal ofrece un “distrito santuario” a los estudiantes? Aunque establecer un distrito escolar como un “santuario” puede establecer su política para proteger a los estudiantes indocumentados por medio de limitar la aplicación de—o negándose a aplicar—las leyes de inmigración, no hay ninguna otra protección legal para residentes/estudiantes como resultado de este estado. El distrito escolar, sin embargo, podrá utilizar el alcance de su discreción autorizada por la ley estableciendo políticas y procedimientos para asegurar la seguridad de sus estudiantes, como la creación de límites apropiados a las visitas de los funcionarios de inmigración a la escuela y no permitiendo que el personal haga preguntas sobre el estado de inmigración de un estudiante o padre. ¿Si un distrito aprueba una resolución para convertirse en un distrito santuario, corre el riesgo de perder fondos federales? No se sabe en este momento si los distritos escolares santuarios están en riesgo de perder fondos federales en resultado de su estado como santuario. El Presidente Trump ha declarado durante su campaña que el bloquearía los fondos federales para ciudades santuario que se niegan a cooperar con los funcionarios federales de inmigración, pero no se sabe actualmente si el, de hecho, procederá con esta política—o cualquier otra política similar relacionada con la financiación de escuelas públicas que también se declaran sitios de santuario—o qué prioridad se le dará a esta política.
