Who: Anyone interested in conducting Web based research to verify school districts’ compliance with new state law that protects immigrant students

What: A new state law, AB 495, took effect on Jan 1, 2026.  It requires all school districts to update existing policies that protect immigrant students, and to adopt the “Know Your Educational Rights” checklist for students and families.
