Immigration Information
Every family should know that every child in the Oceanside Unified School District (OUSD) has the Constitutional right to attend school regardless of immigration status. OUSD does not request or record information about a student’s immigration status. Federal and state laws protect student information from disclosure to others, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). OUSD does not permit non-students, including ICE agents, access to OUSD facilities unless they can produce a warrant signed by a federal judge. School administrators will not permit the disclosure of confidential student information without first consulting their attorney to make sure that the information has been properly subject to a federal judge’s warrant.
Families should consult community resources to learn their rights and additional information will be provided to help families access these resources

Todas las familias deben saber que cada niño en el Distrito Escolar Unificado de Oceanside (OUSD) tiene el derecho constitucional de asistir a la escuela sin importar su estado migratorio. El OUSD no pide ni anota información sobre el estado migratorio de un estudiante. Las leyes federales y estatales protegen la información de los estudiantes de ser divulgada a otros, incluyendo al Servicio de Control de Inmigración y Aduanas (Immigration and Customs Enforcement o ICE, por sus siglas en inglés). El OUSD no permite que personas que no sean estudiantes, incluyendo agentes de ICE, accedan a las instalaciones del OUSD a menos que puedan producir una orden judicial firmada por un juez federal. Los directores escolares no permitirán la divulgación de información estudiantil confidencial sin primero consultar con su abogado para garantizar que la información sea sujeta a una orden judicial de un juez federal.
Las familias deben consultar los recursos comunitarios para conocer sus derechos y se brindará información adicional para ayudar a las familias a acceder a estos recursos.
