Our DEIJB Mission
At St. Luke’s, DEIJB is a way of life and an ethical stance supported by our mission and our identity as an Episcopal independent school that values perspectives and practices rooted in religion, spirituality, and moral traditions. St. Luke’s School endeavors to create a culture of inclusive belonging. To establish this culture, we believe that the entire community must be committed to deepening our work towards diversity, equity, and social justice.
BUILDING A PLACE FOR STUDENTS
Our community offers each member a welcome place to unite knowledge with goodness. We believe that though learning may begin in the classroom, it’s what you do with these lessons that truly changes the world. The foundation of this requires the expansive and continuous work of fostering authentic inclusivity, a cornerstone of St. Luke’s School.
A Place in the Classroom:
Our rich and rigorous curriculum develops confident learners who are both independent and collaborative. We create a safe environment for intellectual discourse through which students learn to trust their minds, find their voices, and pursue their ambitions.
A Place at the Table:
We intentionally embrace diversity, inclusion, and equity—every person has a place at the table and every voice is valued. Through our Episcopal traditions, we welcome people of all faiths and beliefs into a community where God and human spirituality are contemplated in the development of the whole self.
A Place in the World:
Our ethical underpinning guides our children in nurturing their social consciousness and their ability to face challenges with grace, courage, and resilience. We plant the seeds for a life of fulfillment and gratitude in which each child embodies a willingness to serve a greater purpose.
OUR COMMUNITY STANDARDS
The St. Luke’s School Community Standards act as the foundation upon which the St. Luke’s community builds. These values simultaneously support each individual student’s educational, social, and emotional life and guide our institutional and community values. The Standards are pillars upon which the St. Luke’s identity stands.
St. Luke’s School is a community of trust and a place of belonging. Our commitment to the community standards of dignity, compassion, respect, excellence, and honesty will help us to change the world – one human at a time.
