Illegal immigrants are 3.5 percent of the population. But they are parents to 7 percent of K-12 stud

At the high end is Nevada. While 7.6 percent of Nevada residents are illegal immigrants, more than one in six K-12 students (17.7 percent) has at least one undocumented immigrant for a parent.

That number is 13.2 percent in California, 13.1 percent in Texas and 11 percent in Arizona. In each case, the number of children with undocumented parents is more than twice the overall undocumented population.
