Two people hug as parents and community members drop off kids and show their support on the first day of DC Public Schools outside an elementary in Washington, DC on August 25, 2025, as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Federal agent raids increase in the city. Neighbors, volunteers and parents clapped, blew whistles and shook tambourines as they accompanied children to school on the first day of the new school year across Washington on Monday, with the city's immigrant community gripped by fear amid the Trump administration's deportation raids.
