MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minneapolis school district has announced plans to offer families the option of remote learning for a month in light of heightened federal immigration enforcement activities in the city. The district's decision was communicated to teachers through emails obtained by The Associated Press. This development arises as the Trump administration sends approximately 2,000 immigration agents to the area, increasing tensions within the community.

The news comes shortly after the tragic shooting of a local woman by a federal agent, an incident that has sparked considerable concern and outrage among residents. The school district's initiative aims to provide families with reassurance and support during a time of uncertainty, allowing students to continue their education safely from home as immigration enforcement escalates in the area.}
