Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice
At Oxbow, 我们致力于打造一个多元化的安全社区, equitable, inclusive, and just. Due to the small size of our student body and staff, 至关重要的是,所有成员都有归属感和茁壮成长的机会. Our daily practice is guided by compassion, care, empathy, and respect for each other; everyone at Oxbow is encouraged to act from a generosity of spirit. 我们承认,每个人都是独一无二的,社会的成功与个人的成功密不可分. Therefore, 在我们认识到包容性环境所带来的力量之际,每一个声音都必须得到倾听和颂扬. We honor the diversity defined by race, ethnicity, culture, socioeconomic status, gender identity and expression, sexuality, ability, family composition, and religion. Through these differences and similarities, genuine relationships are formed, and growth and self-discovery are fostered. Whether it is consciously embedded in our curriculum, part of the nuanced social fabric, or participating in community partnerships, 牛轭鼓励学生体现艺术家的本质-大胆和诚实, even in the face of adversity – we believe that, 因为我积极参与了牛轭一个充满活力的社区, 我们的学生为成为整个世界的变革推动者做好了更好的准备.
