Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

At Monica Ros School, we strive to instill a deep sense of community and belonging through celebrating the beautiful differences and similarities in all of us. We are dedicated to creating a safe, equitable, and inclusive learning environment in which all feel welcomed and respected. Our core belief is that students who are seen and appreciated for their whole selves will thrive socially, emotionally, and academically.

Monica Ros School commits that our parents, guardians, staff, and board will pursue policies to eliminate bias and prioritize equity in our organizational structures, curriculum, and instructional practices. We will continue to examine and grow our practices by actively engaging, listening, and responding to the voices and needs of all families, while uplifting those who have been historically marginalized. 

Monica Ros School students learn about and reflect on the various facets of social identity, starting with their own, all the way from Green Room to Third Grade.Through a “windows and mirrors” approach to exploring similarities and differences, students continually build a compassionate understanding of a broad spectrum of perspectives and experiences. We believe that this philosophy will prepare creative, brave children who advocate for themselves and others in our diverse and ever-changing world.
