Diversity, Equity & Inclusion - Creating a Community of Belonging
Our Philosophy:
The School is committed to creating a campus environment that mirrors the cultural, ethnic, and socio-economic composition of our greater community. We believe that with diversity comes a responsibility to value individual differences and provide a safe space for inclusion and positive interactions among all members of the school community.
Defining Diversity:
The School defines diversity in this way: It is the presence and expression of human differences within overarching similarities, including — but not limited to — race, gender, national origin, ethnic background, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, abilities, and family makeup.
An Open-Minded Education:
The education model offered at the School is characterized by open-mindedness, mutual respect, critical inquiry, and reflective practice. It encourages children to become forward-thinking, civically responsible, and respectful of others.
Respect For Different Values & Beliefs:
The School believes it is important to teach and model respect for different values and beliefs, as well as to teach various religious, spiritual, and ethical systems in appropriate courses and content areas. The School does not, however, endorse any particular religion or faith tradition.
Policies of Non-Discrimination:
The School provides equal employment opportunities for all job applicants. The School affords protection against harassment of employees, contractors, service providers, and others, as well as guards students against prejudicial treatment.
