Equity and Inclusion

St. George’s School values diversity, which exposes each member of our community to the rich and wonderful variety of the human race. Our experiences are shaped by many factors, including age, ethnicity, family structure, gender, gender identity, nationality, physical ability, race, religion, sexual orientation and socioeconomic standing. We believe that exposing students, faculty, and staff to a wide range of ideas, experiences and cultures, examining and challenging preconceptions, and exploring different ways of thinking enhances the learning experience and reflects the school’s educational mission. This inclusive approach helps to foster a welcoming, supportive, and healthy residential community that embraces differences and promotes genuine respect for each individual. In today’s complex, changing world, we continue building and sustaining a diverse community at St. George’s to achieve a clearer understanding of our roles in an interconnected global community, and to prepare us for lives of constructive service to the world.
