The Diversity Club aims to bring together students of different backgrounds, providing an intentional space for building bridges to connect students across their differences. It will focus on helping students become more open to and less threatened by their uniqueness. Diversity Club will also help students become more compassionate, able to interact more effectively with students from a variety of backgrounds, and sidestep any stereotypes they might have.

  • If you are interested in joining the Diversity Club, there will be a meeting on Monday, September 14th at 12:45. Please email Ms. Barkley (formerly Mrs. Eddins) at jbarkley@eastwakeacademy.org for Zoom meeting details.
