Seekonk High School Celebrates Inclusivity

International Inclusive Schools Week is celebrated annually the first week in December to promote inclusive practices in schools. Seekonk High School observed the event from December 5th through the 9th.

“The goal is to ensure a quality education for our increasingly diverse student population (including, but not limited to, students who can be marginalized because of their disability, gender, socio-economic status, race, and/or sexual orientation),’ Superintendent Rich Drolet said Monday.

“This year's theme was "Unity Within Schools” and the idea is to promote inclusion and acceptance,” Drolet added. “Under Ms. Kristin Nelson’s guidance and leadership, the Unified Club made a display titled, "Great Things Happen in Inclusive Schools!”
