PEAPOD DESIGN

Community is something we consciously create at Lesley Ellis. We work hard at it and nurture it. Our anti-bias curriculum sets both our agenda and tone, ensuring that our values are ever-present. We respect each other's work, interests, and histories. This is a place where ideas are valued and exchanged freely, and where we listen thoughtfully. We take care of each other and the community to which we all belong... Lesley Ellis supports the growth of confident, ethical learners by balancing core academic skill building and knowledge acquisition with age appropriate social and emotional development... Our commitment to celebrating the broad spectrum of human variety has enriched our community with differences of all kinds. Not only do we welcome families from all cultural and ethnic backgrounds-who bring a diversity of identities, family structures, and belief systems-but we also intentionally explore diversity, equity, and justice as core tenets of our school.
