North Carolina school district releases memo on 'supporting student absences' due to ICE raids

North Carolina's largest school district released a notice on Tuesday to help support student absences in light of recent immigration raids in the state.

Wake County Public Schools Superintendent Robert P. Taylor wrote a message titled, "Supporting staff and families amid recent federal immigration orders," to address the "anxiety" felt by members of the community over federal immigration orders.

At the bottom of the message was a section on "supporting student absences" during the "challenging times." North Carolina's capital city of Raleigh is Wake's county seat.
