Because of the diversity in our classrooms, our students are learning about different backgrounds, cultures, and customs in the most natural way possible, through their daily interactions with other students in their classroom and school. Through these positive interactions, our students will leave our schools capable of entering the world of work or further education ready to successfully interact and learn side-by-side with people of different backgrounds and cultures.
Our teachers and school personnel are trained to help students value and accept the differences each child brings into the classroom. When a problem does arise, the teacher or other professional is there to help each student learn to work successfully with others and to help students develop problem-solving and other life skills important to accepting diversity.
Getting to know people from different cultures and backgrounds makes living in a diverse society both educational and interesting. The trained and caring educational professionals of our school district are always on hand and ready to help our students with diversity issues.
