Controversy
In 2018, Huntington High School was at the center of a controversy surrounding the deportation of a Honduran student seeking asylum. Documented in the New York Times, Alex was wrongly accused by Huntington High School of being part of a gang. "Despite all these warning signs, when the ICE agents came to Alex's house on June 14, 2017, he was shocked into silence. It was only when they were far from Huntington, passing through unfamiliar, rundown Long Island towns, that he was able to get out the words to ask why he was being arrested. Alex says the agent first asked him to guess, and then told him, "We received a report a while ago from the school that you were a gang member, and that's why."[2]
