TIMELINE
增加多样性、公平和包容性一直是圣. 卢克的 for decades. 例如, in 2004, we 美国东部时间ablished a Diversity Committee on the Board of Trustees to examine the 文化 和 ethos of the school with a focus on a multicultural curriculum. 2006年，我们制定了包含七个目标的“多元化计划”. For more details, please check out the TIMELINE 下面.
Affinity Groups
在圣. 卢克的, we think expansively about our community 和 recognize the power of our similarities to create meaningful connections. 我们也相信我们的多样性——各种各样的差异, including ability, 信仰, 文化, 而经验——也是我们社区的一种力量. For this reason, we support a number of different affinity groups which celebrate 多样性 while fostering inclusion 和 belonging. 而由学生领导的社团则把有共同兴趣的人联系在一起, affinity groups provide social-emotional support for people who might feel like “outsiders” due to a particular minority status at school. SLS亲和组不受评判，并鼓励建立联系.

According to the National Association of Independent Schools: “As a learning base, affinity groups offer affirmation of identity, empowerment of the individual, 以及在学习社区中赋予团队权力——所有这些都值得为之奋斗.” By gathering periodically in affinity groups, people with a shared identity can assess, reflect 和 process their lived experiences in an effort to build greater confidence 和 affirm one another. Participation in affinity groups encourages participants to embrace different parts of their identity 和 to feel a sense of group pride 和 positive self-worth.
当亲和团体有机会走到一起, the goal is for all people to feel more visible 和 more valued in the community 和 to bolster the school’s commitment to inclusion 和 belonging.
