CHS Diversity Statement
Concord Hill School seeks families, faculty and staff of all types and backgrounds who reflect the diversity of the Washington metropolitan area. We believe that our young students are enriched by a community that includes people of diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and perspectives. In keeping with our five core tenets of knowledge, character, respect, play and community, we incorporate themes of diversity throughout our academic and social curriculum at all grade levels. Appreciation of diversity in our school and in the greater community is essential to providing an excellent education that will prepare our students not only for their next schools but also for success in an interconnected world.
