On this episode of the Chandler Chat, host Harriette Chandler invites back Superintendent of Worcester Public Schools Rachel Monárrez, Ph.D., to discuss how the schools are choosing to deal with the many sudden changes being enacted by the Trump Administration, from their banning of references to DEI and other inclusive language from the federal government, to their ongoing crackdown on immigration, to their defunding of the Department of Education. They discuss how the WPS will be effected by federal cuts to education, and how they are outlining legal procedures to lawfully refuse collaboration with ICE, who threaten the safety and security of staff, students and their families, and ensuring that free speech continues to be enshrined in our public education system.
