At Buckley, we believe that our differences are a source of collective strength, and strive to cultivate a community where equity and justice are at the forefront, and where every human being is valued and feels a true sense of belonging.

Our Diversity Statement

Our diversity statement affirmed by The Buckley School Board of Trustees calls us to:

  • 将巴克利学校建立在所有独立学校的前列,对其而言,多样性、公平和包容是学术和课外活动的宝贵组成部分,为学生上大学和浏览全球社会做准备。
  • 通过可持续的项目、培训、专业发展机会、嘉宾演讲、教育性实地考察和其他活动来扩大多样性倡议,不断教育所有社区成员。
  • 将公平和包容作为课程开发的战略重点,以确保该倡议系统地渗透到每个教室和巴克利理念的每个组成部分。
  • 通过积极寻求新的和改进的方法来留住、支持和招聘不同的学生群体、教职员工,从而提高多样性。

The Board of Trustees also promotes these initiatives through the work of its DEI committee.

DEI专题讨论会

Any student can submit a symposium topic for approval and then acquire the speakers, create a poster, and moderate.

    身份的交汇点

    Every ninth grade student at Buckley takes this signature course, which builds awareness, leadership skills, and identity development. Students explore big themes such as power, systems of oppression, gentrification, and how dominant culture plays out in the media and creation of self-image.

    Family Networks

    Buckley's family networks bring together family members and students with common identities to share experiences and form connections. Led by parents and guardians, these networks receive support from the Office of DEI and the Parents' Association.

     

    学生亲和团体

    Buckley has several student affinity groups led by students and teachers. These groups support student-led activities and respect the experiences, and efforts that students want to share, whether on or off campus.

     

    分享我们的故事

    身份和自我发现对于学生了解自己和彼此至关重要。这项工作包含了身份发展框架,包括能力、年龄、种族、家庭结构、性别、种族、宗教和社会经济地位。在低年级,这种探索存在于每周集会上的 "分享我们的故事 "等项目中。
