An 8-year-old Haitian boy was escorted by federal immigration agents inside a government building in San Diego, California, after attending an immigration check-in with a man who claimed to be his uncle.
The Department of Homeland Security said the man could not establish legal guardianship of the child, prompting ICE to classify him as an unaccompanied minor and place him in the care of the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
DHS defended the decision, saying it was made to ensure the boy’s safety, and disputed claims that he had been placed in immigration detention. Children transferred to the agency’s care are typically housed in shelters or foster homes until a suitable sponsor is found or they turn 18.

Maybe if the superintendent and District directors didn’t make $100,000+ a year there would be more money for the classroom. Raising our taxes does nothing but give those worthless districts admin a pay bump. The money never makes it to the classroom.
