Safe School Resolution

The Salt Lake City School District knows that many of our students and families are struggling with intensely personal questions, concerns, and fears about the national landscape regarding immigration. Our mission – and our obligation under the law – is to ensure that our schools are safe spaces for learning, where all students – regardless of immigration status, race, ethnicity, religion, disability, nationality, gender, gender identity, or any other protected classification – are respected and have access to a quality education.

Resolution for the Protection of Children

The Salt Lake City School District values and celebrates the incredible diversity of our students, families, and staff, including our robust refugee and immigrant constituency. We also share the deep concerns of our community about the current treatment of migrants and asylum seekers, especially minors, at the U.S. – Mexico border, and deplore the use of family separation as a tool of immigration policy aimed at deterring people seeking safety. In supporting the social and emotional well-being of all our students, we commit to respect the human rights and civil liberties of all people, and condemn all hateful speech and violent action directed at any student or individual, including immigrants and people of color.
