Texas enviará otras 1000 tropas a la frontera http://189.179.150.18:81/index.php/texas/item/9839-texas-enviara-otras-1000-tropas-a-la-frontera http://189.179.150.18:81/index.php/texas/item/9839-texas-enviara-otras-1000-tropas-a-la-frontera

A medida que la crisis de inmigrantes indocumentados a lo largo de la frontera de Texas continЬa aumentando, el gobernador de Texas Greg Abbott está a punto de ordenar a otros 1,000 soldados de la Guardia Nacional a la frontera de Texas / México. 

En abril, el gobernador Abbott envió 1.000 tropas a la frontera después de que un aumento de más de 2.000 inmigrantes indocumentados se dirigieran a Piedras Negras y otras áreas a lo largo de la frontera.

Desde entonces, la frontera suroeste de los Estados Unidos ha continuado viendo un aumento de las detenciones de inmigrantes indocumentados, que no se han visto en más de una década.

El gobernador Abbott anunció el despliegue a fines de la semana pasada y también criticó al Congreso por su poca o ninguna acción sobre la crisis humanitaria que se está viendo.

Los miembros de la Guardia Nacional también asistirán en el puerto de entrada y en los centros de detención.

El nuevo despliegue de la Guardia Nacional de Texas que trata con la crisis de inmigrantes indocumentados elevará el número total de miembros de la Guardia en la frontera de Texas a aproximadamente 2,000.

Maude Mae Kirchner Elementary was named among the top 100 elementary schools in the state of Texas from over 8,000 schools. 

Every year, Children at Risk ranks and grades Texas public schools to help parents, educators, and community members understand how schools in their community are performing, and to spark dialogue on the quality of public education across Texas. Schools are assigned ranks and grades based on student achievement on standardized tests, student growth year-to-year, and how well schools support economically disadvantaged students.

The study compares over 8,000 schools across the state, including elementary, middle school and high schools.

This year one of the schools in the Eagle Pass Independent School District made the top 100 elementary schools named in the rankings report. 

Maude Mae Kirchner Elementary was ranked No. 93 from over 4,547 schools reviewed by the study.

For the past 13 years, Children at Risk has shared its annual school rankings with the public. School rankings are calculated using the following measures: Student Achievement Index – Student performance on STAAR Reading and Math tests, Campus Performance Index – A school’s overall campus performance is compared to other campuses statewide with similar levels of poverty.

This adjustment is made to eliminate bias toward campuses with low percentages of economically disadvantaged students. Growth Index – Student-level improvement over time on standardized test scores in Reading, English, and Math. College Readiness Index – High school graduation rates, SAT/ACT participation rate, and scores.

Border Patrol Agents Find Deceased Man, Woman Two Deaths near Carrizo Springs in as Many Days http://189.179.150.18:81/index.php/texas/item/9796-border-patrol-agents-find-deceased-man-woman-two-deaths-near-carrizo-springs-in-as-many-days http://189.179.150.18:81/index.php/texas/item/9796-border-patrol-agents-find-deceased-man-woman-two-deaths-near-carrizo-springs-in-as-many-days

DEL RIO, Texas – U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Carrizo Springs Station found the remains of two deceased people over the past two days. 

 “The triple-digit temperatures experienced during the summer months make traveling on foot extremely dangerous, especially over the distances attempted by those illegally entering the United States,” said Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Raul L. Ortiz. “Tragically, those who are unable to keep up with their group are often left behind to die by callous smugglers, who are driven by profit and lack any semblance of compassion or regard for human life.”

On June 5, Border Patrol agents near Carrizo Springs responded to a 911 call regarding two suspected undocumented immigrants in distress, possibly suffering from dehydration. Responding agents searched and were able to locate a man and a woman on a remote area of a ranch. The woman, a 20-year-old Mexican national, was found deceased.

Two days later, on June 7, a second suspected undocumented immigrant was found deceased by Carrizo Springs agents after a concerned citizen reported an unresponsive man near a ranch gate.

Local authorities were notified and took custody of the deceased. 

There have been 14 deaths reported within Del Rio Sector since the beginning of Fiscal Year 2019.

The Del Rio Border Patrol Sector is part of the Joint Task Force-West South Texas Corridor, which leverages federal, state and local resources to combat transnational criminal organizations. To report suspicious activity call the Del Rio Sector’s toll free number at 1-866-511-8727.

EAGLE PASS, Texas – U.S. Border Patrol agents from the Eagle Pass South Station along with members of the Del Rio Border Patrol Sector Search, Trauma, and Rescue (BORSTAR) team rescued a Honduran male suffering from a heat related illness near El Indio. 

“The majority of people attempting to illegally enter this country are ill-prepared for the treacherous terrain they face,” said Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Raul L. Ortiz. “Had our agents not been out patrolling the remote areas of our border, this man would have most likely died from exposure.” 

On June 6, Border Patrol agents from the Eagle Pass South Station were tracking a group of suspected undocumented immigrants when they found a 24-year-old Honduran male, lying on the ground, suffering from dehydration. Del Rio Sector BORSTAR agents patrolling in the area immediately responded and began treating the man for heat related injuries.
