Background
-
The Fullerton School District has a long-time commitment to creating safe and inclusive school campuses and departments for all students, staff, teachers, and families.
In 2020, the District held a listening tour to hear from parents, caregivers, guardians, and our greater community on what was needed and wanted for their child's classroom education and our collective community education.
From this valuable feedback, the District-wide Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee. This is an effort to increase transparency about the inclusive and culturally responsive efforts district-wide. The DEI Committee is one way for parents, teachers, staff, and administrators to work alongside each other on common goals that support community and connection while increasing our collective awareness and knowledge of the diversity in our community.
District-wide Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Framework
-
During the 2020-21 academic year, the Fullerton School District developed and adopted the Framework for Cultivating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to serve as an intentional guidepost for our district-wide practices. This framework was developed between several departments, including all Cabinet members.
Our Board of Trustees, district management staff, teachers, and some parents have been introduced to the framework.
