The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee comprises faculty, staff and families working collaboratively to advocate, educate and support inclusiveness in our community. We encourage opportunities for students, staff, and faculty to grow in their own understanding of diversity, equity and inclusion. We actively promote equality of representation in the school and curriculum. We take a stand against discrimination, stereotyping, and prejudice. We offer opportunities and safety for all.
We always seek participants who are passionate about making GVCS a stronger community through DEI. Join us, during the school year,the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month, from 5:30-7 pm. The meeting place will be communicated on ParentSquare.
We believe in the equality of human dignity and the limitlessness of human potential.
