BPS Diversity & Inclusion

Braintree Public Schools is committed to ensuring equity and access to all of our students.  BPS continuously strives to eliminate bias within our district and elevate underrepresented voices.  The district values inclusivity, acknowledging the unique perspectives each student brings and implementing diverse curricula tailored to individual needs.  This approach fosters an environment where learners thrive academically and socially, cultivating a sense of belonging and agency (voice) and preparing them to be engaged, responsible citizens in a diverse society.

Recently, Braintree Public Schoosl (BPS) collaborated with Dr. Allyson Livingstone to enhance cultual proficiency, focusing on diversity, equity, and inclusion among staff, and the Leadership Team analyzed data to identify performance gaps among student groups.  A diverse panel of BHS students provided insights, leading to initiatives for fostering welcoming environments and curriculum updates in History and Social Studies that expanded beyond a Eurocentric perspective.  The formation of a Diversity & Inclusion Steering Committee and site- based committees furthered these efforts. 

The BHS Diversity & Inclusion Council serves as a platform for student discussions on racial issues and organizes events, including a PRIDE Pep Rally and cultural events open to families as well as the entire community.
