Diversity Mission Statement

A diverse, inclusive, and respectful community enhances the academic and emotional intelligence of all students and lays the foundation for them to develop in meaningful and mindful ways. We believe in the dignity and the intrinsic worth of every human being. We welcome, affirm, and support children of all abilities, experiences, races, ethnicities, socio-economic backgrounds, gender expressions, religion and non-religion, citizenship and immigration status, and any other category people use to define themselves. We also have a longstanding commitment of welcoming children of gay and lesbian parents, supporting single parents and children who are adopted, and welcoming families of all income levels. We strive to create a safe and inclusive environment that celebrates diversity and fosters positive relationships. Differences lift us.

“Our daughter went 4 years to this wonderful school…Each year, from the 2s class to Jr Kindergarten, we observed our daughter learn so many wonderful things at gingerbread, from hand signs, to using the scissors, to learning to color, understanding patterns, developing an interest in cooking…teaching her the right way to hold a pencil, to sitting criss cross, art work, projects, group play, every day bringing back tons of activity sheets, outdoor play and snow day activities, kids appeared really happy and energized as they came outside after school…One can’t summarize so many great things in a few paragraphs, we are indebted to Gingerbread…”
