New York parents 'furious' special needs students could be forced out of building amid migrant influx: Report

New York middle school students are being "pushed" off campus to an old building to accommodate a surge in enrollment caused by the ongoing migrant crisis.
"This is a change for me and I don’t like change. I just don’t like how we’re being pushed into a new environment that’s not safe for me," the seventh grader told the New York Post. Alba Cuebas-Fantauzzi is a freelance production assistant at Fox News Digital.
Some of Holland’s peers reiterated the same sentiment. India Ringold said the school’s current location makes her feel "safe," while sixth grader Logan Padron added that the new campus’ cafeteria "looks like a prison."
West Prep has a 43% population of children with special needs. As a replacement, they have been given an old schoolhouse with no outdoor space or adequate accommodations for its disabled students, the Post reported. One parent, Bianca Louch, was concerned.
