Diversity In NYC Private Schools Workshop

by NYC Private Schools on December 10, 2009

Diversity is one of the cornerstones of education and even overall culture in NYC Private Schools. The ability to maintain a diverse student body enables the enrichment of every student, every family and every school. Diversity is more than the admissions of a variety of students from different backgrounds, however, and it has repercussions beyond that in every school and borough.

The NYSAIS is holding a workshop for Administrators of Color and Diversity Coordinators being held on Thursday, December 10th at The Dalton School.

Administrators of Color and Diversity Coordinators will come together to discuss case studies focused on various real life conflicts and dilemmas from our schools.
Emphasis will be placed on how school leaders might respond to the conflicts and on learning from each others’ perspectives. Following the workshop we will have a chance to continue our lively conversations and networking over dinner.

5:30 p.m. Registration and reception
6:00 p.m. Welcome and announcements
6:10 p.m. Small group work on case studies
7:00 p.m. Reassemble and debrief
7:15 p.m. Dinner until 8 p.m.
Coordinated by the NYSAIS Diversity Committee, and led by Tasha Elsbach, The Brearley School, and Matt Suzuki, Rye Country Day School.
