Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

BSCSD Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Committee

 Mission Statement

The Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Committee aims to create a truly inclusive learning environment in which all members of the school community feel welcomed and supported, have an equitable opportunity to succeed, and experience a sense of belonging.

The best learning happens when students see their own lives reflected back to them, are given the opportunity to experience stories different from their own, and engage in authentic learning that builds belonging and empathy.

All school community members benefit when we prioritize belonging. Through creating an intentionally inclusive environment, in which all identities are celebrated and given agency, we are preparing students to be active and critical participants in their communities, now and in the future.  

To this end, the committee has been engaged in conversation and research; and is developing action plans to recommend policies and practices designed to promote belonging, facilitate growth, improve access, opportunity, and outcomes for all students in our community.
