Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging
The Office of Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging (EIB) supports and fosters a school community that reflects the increasing diversity in Charlotte, the nation and the world, comprised of dynamic individuals with rich culture, religion, race, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, countries of origin, language, and other cultural identifiers that add to the strength of our community.
It is through this exchange of world views and experiences that our community gains a better understanding of the values, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors of each of our members that contribute to and enrich our collective identity.
One way that Providence Day works to create a rich diversity of culture is through its efforts to increase its faculty of color. This challenge is addressed by creating a one-year fellowship program to identify, develop, and support talented faculty of color. They then receive opportunities to lead activities and lessons under the guidance and direction of lead teachers. Learn more about our Teaching Fellows Program.
