USD 407 Community and Students:
The world seeks us to pay attention to some details in recent weeks that perhaps we’ve not. With the turmoil that has boiled up from prejudice and racism in the society at large, USD 407 takes a moment to view these things reflectively and with compassion.
USD 407 believes in personal wellbeing and safety at all schools. We know that we cannot police or create a perfect environment, but our policies and procedures promote and set a standard of equality in our hallways, classrooms, and the opportunities that school offers. Staff, students, visitors, leaders, and families are inclusively welcomed regardless of one’s background. We care about both the present and the potential of USD 407 students. We wish for anyone who comes to our schools to feel confident and safe as they enjoy our schools and activities.
