Saint Andrew’s School
I recently returned to Saint Andrew’s School to onboard my 19th cohort for a full day workshop, "Reframing Diversity to Drive Belonging."
Every adult employee—teachers, counselors, administrators, building and grounds staff, security personnel, administrative assistants, and custodians—has participated in this essential training. I find it ironic that schools often limit belonging professional development to teaching faculty. All adults contribute to community. In fact, students often cite some of their most meaningful relationships with non-teachers in the community.
I look forward to returning in February to continue this vital work, reinforcing our collective commitment to foster a culture of dignity and respect for all.
Many thanks to Drs. Danielle Firmino and Chris Harth, and Ethan Shapiro for their partnership.
