    California's New Immigrant Student Enrollment Plunges

    New immigrant student enrollment in California public schools has significantly decreased, leading to cuts in specialized programs and loss of state funding. The drop, attributed to reduced border crossings, has impacted districts such as Oakland Unified and Los Angeles Unified. Statewide, newcomers fell from 236,958 in 2024-25 to 228,780 in 2025-26. This trend may continue as fewer new arrivals replace those who lose their 'newcomer' status after three years.
