Inclusion

At Providence Day School, we are actively cultivating and sustaining an environment in which all members of our community will experience acceptance, respect, support, and value given their various identities and backgrounds.

• Added several affinity groups (Jewish Student Association, Rainbow Alliance in Middle School, and Jewish Affinity Group in Lower School).
