Our Commitments Around Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

​We:

• Acknowledge that the school rests on the unceded ancestral lands of the Ramaytush Ohlone people.

• Maintain the founding principle to keep tuition as low as possible thereby making a high quality progressive education as accessible as possible. 

• Enrich our community by welcoming a diversity of races, ethnicities, genders, gender identities, sexual orientations, religions, abilities, and national origins.

• Ensure that social emotional learning (SEL) is given equal weight to academic learning.

• Infuse DEI throughout all aspects of the program and community life.

  • Provide real-life, project-based learning, and student leadership opportunities that teach students how to stand up for what is right in order to make the world a better place for all.

  • Teach students to examine biases, within themselves and in the world around them, so they may actively push against them. 

  • Instill in students the notion that they have the responsibility to use their privileges to help others.

  • Educate students about historical systems that disadvantage some members of society over others, empowering them to reshape their world.

  • Support students and community members of all genders via specific policies and commitments.
