Week 3 Assignment number 3: Texas school district turns away students from Mexico

The article "Texas school district turns away students from Mexico" reported by CNN highlights an issue that is prevalent in many border towns of the southwest United States. In the article mentioned, a district is forced to turn away students whom are attending the school because they don't live in the U.S. The article even makes a point to say that the school district went and checked the home addresses of many of the students only to find out that the address was a vacant lock. The issue addressed in the article is rooted in the issue of border patrol. However, I believe the place of a school is just to insure that children are being educated the best they can. While some of the students are not from the United States, the issue of border control is not an issue that the school district should concern itself with addressing, as opposed to worrying whether or not their students are learning everything they possibly can.
