Our Goals

1)  To Create an appreciation of our diverse cultures in both the teaching 
and learning environment for our students and the community.
2)  To compile a group of lesson plans and books that will showcase our many 
diverse backgrounds within our district.
3)  To host a diversity book talk in each of the schools in the district 
which would incorporate students, teachers, and members of the community.
4)  To create a up-to-date website that will help link all of our ideas and 
goals together.
5)  To discuss current issues regarding diversity in our school and 
community and address how to resolve these issues.
