U.S. schools confront anxiety over Trump's actions on immigration: AP

NEW YORK, Feb. 18 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump's immigration policies already are affecting schools across the country, as officials find themselves responding to rising anxiety among parents and their children, including those who are here legally, reported The Associated Press (AP) on Tuesday.

"Trump's executive actions vastly expanded who is eligible for deportation and lifted a ban on immigration enforcement in schools," noted the report. "While many public and school officials have been working to encourage immigrants to send their children to school, some have done the opposite."
