Overview: During a recent Clarksville-Montgomery County School Board meeting, the board debated a resolution opposing House Bill 0793, which would allow public schools to deny enrollment to students without legal immigration status. The resolution, which aimed to affirm the right of all children to a free public education, sparked discussion among board members and the public. Some members argued for the moral obligation to support educational rights for all children, while others contended that the board should focus on local issues rather than state legislation. The resolution ultimately failed to pass.
