Chicago Public Schools officials incorrectly said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents attempted to enter a South Side elementary school.

CPS officials initially said agents who identified themselves as ICE arrived at Hamline Elementary in Back of the Yards Friday, but it was actually Secret Service agents looking for an 11-year-old who posted an anti-Trump video,

The agents turned out to be unrelated to immigration, officials said hours later. They were from the Secret Service, investigating a threat.

CHICAGO -- The U.S. Secret Service said its agents visited a Chicago elementary school Friday while investigating a threat, hours after school officials mistakenly claimed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had come to the building.

At least eight large public school districts across the United States have vowed in recent days to try to protect undocumented immigrant students and their families from President Donald Trump's mass deportation push.

Chicago Public Schools officials reportedly mistook Secret Service agents for ICE officers during a chaotic morning incident amid migrant crackdowns.

After Chicago Public Schools (CPS) initially claimed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents visited a South Side elementary school Friday morning, it was later confirmed that this was not the case.

Several school districts and the Massachusetts attorney general issued guidance on how schools should react if approached by ICE agents.

Under the 1982 U.S. Supreme Court case Plyler v. Doe, it is unconstitutional to deny the benefits of public education to undocumented students. Durham Public Schools believes all children are equally deserving of a sound basic education and does not ask families for their immigration status or record that information in student records.
