The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear a challenge to President Trump’s executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship, a case with direct consequences for schools and educational institutions. Lower courts issued preliminary injunctions, citing the 14th Amendment and longstanding precedent, but the high court’s review creates legal uncertainty about the citizenship status of children born in the U.S. to undocumented parents. School districts, university admissions offices and state education agencies are monitoring the case for its potential to affect enrollment, in‑state tuition eligibility, and access to federal programs. Legal outcomes could prompt rapid policy shifts for K‑12 schools and colleges serving immigrant communities.
