In the spirit of continuing revelation, we are lifting up and celebrating Cultural Heritage months, amplifying voices that seem underrepresented in our conversations. The thread of pluralism harkens back to the early days of Quakerism and underscores the Equality and Community testimonies in the daily life of our schools today.

We encourage and support students, teachers, parents, and other members of the school community in:

• Affirming all identities, celebrating the Light in each of us.
• Learning about people’s experiences that might be similar to or different from our own.
• Connecting to our inner voice, seeking empathy, understanding, and paths toward kindness, inclusivity, and social justice.
• Making room for young hearts and minds to find their people and their place.

In this message, you will find:

• Queries to spark your reflection and discussion within your communities.
• Resources and additional information.
• A spotlight that illustrates how one of our schools is immersing students into an aspect of cultural heritage.
