Diversity & Inclusion
Our Commitment to Staff & Students
Cedar Crest Academy is committed to fostering a school culture where every community member is treated with respect, fairness, honesty, and empathy.
Our faculty and staff are provided with the opportunity to build a strong foundation for children during one of the most important stages of development. We believe it is essential to teach cultural competence and empathy at a young age, helping students grow within a safe, community-oriented environment.
As a school, we believe we must reflect and model the characteristics and mindsets we teach our students. Cedar Crest expects all faculty, staff, and families to demonstrate the Ten Pillars of Character Education throughout the year.
Cedar Crest Academy is committed to continued growth through diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Together, we encourage our students, families, and staff to learn, reflect, and grow so we can maintain a positive, safe, and welcoming school.
