Nonotuck Community School Diversity Mission Statement

Nonotuck Community School is committed to fostering a learning environment that is open, inclusive, welcoming, respectful, and accessible to all people and to forging a strong community commitment to the value of diversity.

We recognize the benefit of a wide range of family structures; racial, cultural, linguistic, and socio-economic backgrounds; individuals with various abilities; a wide range of sexual orientations and gender identities; and various spiritual, religious and non-religious backgrounds. We strive as a school community to discuss and affirm these differences with our children in age-appropriate ways, knowing that exploring differences is a natural part of the developmental process. To that end, we encourage our children and community members to ask curious questions, while also intentionally and proactively including classroom materials and topics that address issues of diversity.
