Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging

Embracing, respecting, and supporting diversity is at the heart of the Spring Valley School experience, as the School exists to educate students with learning differences and to equip them to lead fulfilling and productive lives. To this end, the School strives to be an inclusive community in which all of its members, students, staff, and parents, feel a sense of belonging and support, and where each party is respected for their unique strengths, contributions, and experiences. The School recognizes that diversity is a broad and multidimensional term that includes, but is not limited to, ethnicity, race, religious background, gender, sexual orientation, and disability status.

Spring Valley School seeks to be a community in which every individual is treated with sensitivity and respect. The School strives to foster an environment that recognizes and honors the unique qualities, personalities, and backgrounds of its community members. It is extremely important that every member of Spring Valley maintains common trust and establishes an environment of mutual respect, understanding, and sensitivity.
