Diversity and Inclusiveness

Students and educators continue to explore the complexities and impact of diversity and inclusiveness in family life, educational environments, and work settings. The challenges of our increasingly multicultural world are examined through discourse in classrooms, community gatherings, and political arenas.

As George School maintains its Strategic Areas and Goals to "enhance our distinction as an inclusive educational community by challenging ourselves to address difficult questions raised by diversity in all of its dimensions", we welcome the study and celebration of these important areas of research and practice.
