The US high schools with immigrant-only areas

Child immigrants in the US often struggle to adapt to new schools. To make that process easier, more than 20 US schools have created separate spaces for immigrants. One of the newest such schools is in the state of Maryland. But the anti-discrimination organization, the NAACP, worries that immigrant-only education will hurt students in the long run.
