ICE arrest people in San Diego, US – 22 May 2025
(Amityville, New York) — Some parents who sent their kids to an Amityville, New York elementary school are outraged after a staff member dressed as an ICE agent for Hero Day on Wednesday. The incident happened at Northwest Elementary School. The employee showed up wearing a hat and jacket with the ICE logo on them. Some teachers and parents say they found the costume offensive because the Amityville school district has a huge Hispanic population.
The school district released the following statement,
“The Amityville Union Free School District is aware of an allegation involving a district staff member who affixed an acronym to their clothing that was perceived by some members of the school community as offensive or inappropriate in the educational setting,” “Our top priority is to ensure that our schools remain safe, inclusive, and welcoming spaces for all students and families.”
The faculty member in question has been reassigned to a non-school setting pending a review of the incident.
