But the enthusiasm for TK is tempered by concerns that the investment won’t pay off if the program’s benefits fade over time. Studies have shown that children who attend preschool start kindergarten with a measurable advantage over classmates who didn’t participate, but those gains seem to disappear by roughly the third grade.

Protesters throughout the afternoon danced and chanted as the group performed songs calling for the closure of the facility and release of workers detained there. Halfway through the event, protesters marched down the block to the west end of the facility to make sure the music could be heard more clearly by the people being held inside. “We moved to this side because we got some calls from inside from people saying they couldn’t hear us,” said Pablo Alvarado, executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NDLON representatives later said some people with loved ones inside the facility confirmed they were able to hear the music after the group moved. Caleb Soto, an attorney with NDLON, said advocates believe the conditions inside the privately run detention center reflect DHS’ cruelty against immigrant communities. “The people who are being killed inside there aren’t being killed just because of neglect,” said Soto. “It’s because of what’s called organized abandonment. It’s on purpose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Homeland Security has disputed criticism of the facility and says detention centers operate according to federal standards.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Teachers usually talk to their colleagues from the same grade level and follow pre-designed lesson plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steven Kellner, director of district leadership and state policy for the nonprofit California Education Partners, said that creates a “herky-jerky” learning experience for students. “‘Kindergarten’s this way and first grade’s that way,’ and they have nothing to do with each other,” he said of districts’ typical approach. “Transitional kindergarten is great, but if it’s not connected to the other grades, it’s not super helpful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-16/activists-gather-for-protest-concert-at-adelanto-ice-detention-center\">\u003cstrong>Advocates call attention to plight of undocumented detainees at Adelanto facility\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A caravan of immigrant rights activists and musicians drove to the Adelanto ICE Processing Center near Victorville on Saturday to stage a protest concert and caravan outside the detention center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 30 cars and three charter buses traveled roughly 70 miles from Pasadena to the Adelanto ICE facility and arrived around 3:30 p.m. The caravan was organized by the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) and its affiliate organizations, whose representatives said the event was meant to draw attention to the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-05/scngs-ryanne-mena-letters-describe-isolation-medical-concerns-inside-adelanto-ice-facility\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>conditions inside the facility\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kvcrnews.org/local-news/2026-03-09/second-death-linked-to-adelanto-ice-facility-reported-in-two-weeks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>deaths reported at the Adelanto detention facility\u003c/u>\u003c/a> over the past year, and to raise the spirits of the people inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the caravan arrived, musicians from several bands — including headliners \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.instagram.com/losjornalerosdelnorte/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>Los Jornaleros del Norte\u003c/u>\u003c/a> — jumped on a mobile stage truck and began performing. Protesters throughout the afternoon danced and chanted as the group performed songs calling for the closure of the facility and release of workers detained there. Halfway through the event, protesters marched down the block to the west end of the facility to make sure the music could be heard more clearly by the people being held inside. “We moved to this side because we got some calls from inside from people saying they couldn’t hear us,” said Pablo Alvarado, executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NDLON representatives later said some people with loved ones inside the facility confirmed they were able to hear the music after the group moved. Caleb Soto, an attorney with NDLON, said advocates believe the conditions inside the privately run detention center reflect DHS’ cruelty against immigrant communities. “The people who are being killed inside there aren’t being killed just because of neglect,” said Soto. “It’s because of what’s called organized abandonment. It’s on purpose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Pomona Mayor Tim Sandoval said the action reflects the values of the community and was driven in part by advocacy from local residents and immigrant rights groups. “When we have an opportunity to say ‘Free Ramiro,’ it speaks to the values of this community,” Sandoval said. City officials say Pacheco Martinez has lived in the United States for nearly two decades and does not have a criminal record.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/politics/2026/03/04/san-diego-county-to-sue-dhs-for-access-to-inspect-otay-mesa-detention-center\">\u003cstrong>San Diego County to sue DHS for access to inspect Otay Mesa Detention Center\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The San Diego County Board of Supervisors on Wednesday announced it’s suing the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for access to inspect the Otay Mesa Detention Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, federal and county officials were \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/politics/2026/02/20/ice-agents-deny-san-diego-county-supervisors-access-to-the-otay-mesa-immigrant-detention-center\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">turned away from the Otay Mesa Detention Center\u003c/a> when they tried to inspect the facility.

A week earlier, immigration agents had grabbed Julio César Peña from his front yard in Glendale, California. Now, he was in a hospital after suffering a ministroke. He was shackled to the bed by his hand and foot, he told Romero, and agents were in the room, listening to the call. He was scared he would die and wanted his wife there. “What hospital are you at?” Romero asked. “I can’t tell you,” he replied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Viridiana Chabolla, Peña’s attorney, couldn’t get an answer to that question, either. Peña’s deportation officer and the medical contractor at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center refused to tell her. Exasperated, she tried calling a nearby hospital, Providence St. Mary Medical Center. “They said even if they had a person in ICE custody under their care, they wouldn’t be able to confirm whether he’s there or not, that only ICE can give me the information,” Chabolla said. The hospital confirmed this policy to KFF Health News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Family members and attorneys for patients hospitalized after being detained by federal immigration officials said they are facing extreme difficulty trying to locate patients, get information about their well-being, and provide them emotional and legal support.

A week earlier, immigration agents had grabbed Julio César Peña from his front yard in Glendale, California. Now, he was in a hospital after suffering a ministroke. He was shackled to the bed by his hand and foot, he told Romero, and agents were in the room, listening to the call. He was scared he would die and wanted his wife there. “What hospital are you at?” Romero asked. “I can’t tell you,” he replied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Viridiana Chabolla, Peña’s attorney, couldn’t get an answer to that question, either. Peña’s deportation officer and the medical contractor at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center refused to tell her. Exasperated, she tried calling a nearby hospital, Providence St. Mary Medical Center. “They said even if they had a person in ICE custody under their care, they wouldn’t be able to confirm whether he’s there or not, that only ICE can give me the information,” Chabolla said.
