Diversity Philosophy
I believe in...
- differences as what make us unique and remarkable, therefore I will embrace difference as a blessing.
- multicultural education, therefore I will commit to ensuring multicultural texts and lessons are included in the curriculum.
- empathy as a learned skill, therefore I will model and teach empathy to students and teachers alike with everything I do.
- kindness as one of the most important values in life, therefore I will model and teach kindness to students and teachers alike with everything I do.
- teaching tolerance through literature, therefore I will commit to helping choose texts which honor and highlight tolerance of diversity.
- the diversity wheel as a representation of the multitude of ways students can be different from one another, therefore I will strive to recognize and celebrate those differences and help my students do the same.
- the importance of relationships to building an accepting and welcoming community, therefore I will lead with kindness and compassion for those I serve and do my best to understand their perspectives.
