Ivanka Trump, Apple CEO Tim Cook Visit Idaho School

Ivanka Trump and Apple CEO Tim Cook visited a heavily Hispanic Idaho school district on Tuesday to trumpet her workforce development initiative promoting science, technology, engineering and math.

Apple in 2016 donated iPads to all students and teachers in the low-income school district in the small city of Wilder as part of a program to help students lacking access to technology. School officials said that the visit showcased how the district has combined learning and technology.

A small group of President Donald Trump’s supporters and opponents demonstrated outside the elementary school where the visit occurred, while several students from the high school next door walked out of class in protest.

The students primarily said they don’t like the way the district is using the new technology, but other protesters also decried Trump’s immigration policies, his daughter’s use of a private email account for government business and limited school funding.

Many demonstrated against Trump’s deployment of thousands of troops to the Mexican border after he said a caravan of migrants is a threat to U.S. national security.
