Equity, Justice and Community
We see it in the classroom, where teachers value the unique gifts that each student offers. We hear it in meet for learning, when we listen deeply to those who feel moved to speak into the silence.
Through a commitment to honoring diverse perspectives, we prepare our students to be empathetic and thoughtful citizens of the world. As they learn to work both collaboratively and independently, our students develop the knowledge, tools, and skills they need to truly let their lives speak.
Learning Life Skills
Our decision to stay in this urban, multicultural community affirms our belief that the lessons of racial and cultural diversity are a central manifestation of our commitment to Friends’ teachings.
“When big questions confront students, we encourage them to reflect thoughtfully on their answers. We teach them the skills that enable them to do the hard work of not simply reacting to the future but shaping it so that it advances democratic values.”
