Diversity Action Lab Dear Superintendent: I am writing this report to present the Philadelphia Elementary School plan to create a welcoming environment for Stanton Elementary students and staff. Since we are combining to become one school, our students and their families are representing many backgrounds and cultures. In Philadelphia Elementary School, we believe that diversity empowers great schools, and great communities. Thus, our vision is to create an educational and responsible environment that fosters diverse relationships among the administration, faculty, staff, students, and community. Therefore, we have to take action in the face of discrimination, and work to promote an atmosphere of acceptance. We started to create a plan to achieve equity in our school. During this process, we consulted educational professors and encouraged many stakeholders to be involved. The result is this powerful plan.
