NYC high school suspends class as 2,000 migrants sheltered in school instead

James Madison High School in Brooklyn, New York, is facing backlash after its students were told to stay home so thousands of migrants could be sheltered in the school instead. Around 2,000 migrants, who had been sheltered in a tent shelter in New York, were transferred to the nearby school due to high wind concerns. Sky News host Liz Storer said, “This really speaks to you how jam-packed full New York already is”. “I mean, it was less than three months ago we were talking about how the Mayor of New York was literally begging for mercy saying, we’ve run out of room,” she said. “And the fact that kids are now being bumped out of their own schools in favour of housing thousands of migrants goes to show they have run out of room.”
