ST. ANNE’S SCHOOL’S
diversity, equity, & inclusion strategic plan Diversity includes multiple lenses such as race, ethnicity/culture, gender identity, class, language, religion, ability, sexuality, mental health, age, education, body size, neurodiversity, and socioeconomic diversity, among others. Diversity is more than a word or statistic about our student body. Our vision is to achieve a school community where our core values of respect, responsibility, honesty, and kindness are reinforced every day, and where students and adults develop the will, courage, spirit, and knowledge to work for a just and equitable world. We strive to do so by teaching diverse perspectives in our curriculum, honoring the intersections of identity, affirming our common humanity, and creating a culture of belonging. Our students engage in difficult conversations and speak their truth. Through dialogue, St. Anne’s School of Annapolis promotes awareness and advocacy. We prepare our students to conquer unscripted problems, to engage with the world through creative inquiry, and to employ values-based frameworks when taking action.
