Diversity and equity within the school
Dear Colleagues,
In order to complete an assignment for my internship course I must learn more about our school’s culture, specifically related to diversity and equity. Think of school culture as the way things are done at a school, so it is the actions of the school that measure what a school values, not the words included in a school’s vision, but rather the unwritten expectations and norms that build up over time. A survey has been developed by Capella University for this purpose.
Will you please complete this survey? It will take about 15-20 minutes to answer the questions, and I would greatly appreciate your assistance!
Please respond by Oct. 30.
Thank you all for taking the time to participate in this survey.
Sincerely,
LaChanda Hawkins
Let's Begin:
When diverse populations are mentioned in this survey, please think of diversity in terms of language, race, ethnicity, disability, gender, socioeconomic status, and learning differences. The results of this survey will be shared with our principal, and the information will be used for educational purposes to help understand current practice at our school (as part of my internship activities). Please answer openly and honestly as responses will be confidential.
