Innerkip Central School

2024-2025 Safe and Inclusive School Plan

Our school is committed to providing all students with a safe, caring, and inclusive learning environment free from bullying and harassment that promotes respect, acceptance, and empathy.

Staff, students, parents and caregivers, and community partners will work together as a team to help make our school safe and welcoming for everyone.

The Safe and Inclusive School Plan highlights some of the key actions that our school community will put in place as part of our bullying prevention and intervention efforts.

Key Priorities and Goals

This year we are focusing on Diversity Education

We are doing this to promote inclusion and understanding of other cultures

Key Actions or Strategies

• Collecting data from families about their cultural traditions and celebrations to inform…
  • School spirit days/assemblies/announcements/library resources with content from students and their families
• Use community circles and restorative practices to have discussions about challenges as they arise (ex., racial slurs, homophobic slurs, appropriate word choice, etc.,) to build empathy, inclusion and mutual respect

Community and Home Connections

• Ask your child about something new they have learned about another culture
• Try asking your child open-ended questions at home about their day (ex., What was a positive thing about your day?). Additionally, discuss positive ways to resolve conflicts and identify trusted adults at school that students can talk to.
• Check out this resource, Stop It, Name It, about universally addressing a concern.
