The Minneapolis school system will offer families the option of remote learning for a month amid federal immigration enforcement in the city, the district said.

The district provided the update in emails to teachers that were obtained by The Associated Press.

The move comes as the Trump administration sends 2,000 immigration agents to the area and the community responds to the fatal shooting of a local woman earlier this week by a federal agent.
