The Fear Around The Campus Is Palpable

I don't know about your caps's or your District, but we're noticing a lot of tension and fear around here.

I have a large population of migrant worker families where I live. A lot of those kids are worried about what will happen to them. The word their families are going to get deported.

On top of that, a lot of the staff members are anxious about the demise of the department of education. We know that we get our positions from the state, but a lot of funding comes from the federal government.

So right now, my district is in the state of anxiety unlike anything I've seen in years.

I've done my best to try to alleviate people's fears, but in the end there's not much I can do. People are worried about their jobs. People are worried about funding for next year. And students are in fear of what is in store for their future.
