Elementary, secondary, and postsecondary education: immigration enforcement: notification.

Senator Pérez's education bill mandates that California schools and higher education institutions notify their communities when immigration enforcement activities occur on campus. The legislation amends existing state law to require K-12 school administrators and college officials to inform all students, faculty, staff, parents and other campus community members when immigration enforcement presence is confirmed at educational facilities.

The notifications must include specific details about the enforcement activity's date, time and location, along with links to institutional policies and resources, while excluding any personally identifiable information. For K-12 schools, superintendents or principals must notify teachers, staff, parents and others who work on campus. At colleges and universities, each campus must alert its entire community when enforcement activities are confirmed.

The measure builds upon current law that prohibits schools from collecting immigration status information and requires them to report law enforcement requests for campus access. It maintains existing provisions requiring educational institutions to protect student privacy, provide immigration-related legal resources, and assist undocumented students in maintaining their academic standing if affected by enforcement actions. The bill includes state reimbursement for local education agencies' compliance costs and takes effect immediately upon passage as an urgency statute.
