The Committees overarching mission is to answer the charge of Christians to fight the evil of racism by educat-ing themselves, reflecting on their personal thoughts and actions, listening to the experience of those who have been affected by racism, and by developing and supporting programs that help repair the damages caused by racial discrimination.Taken from the USCCB Open Wide Our Hearts Pastoral LetterThe Committee is composed of 17 representatives from various constituency groups including administration, faculty, staff, alumnae, parents, students, and community members.The Committee will assess all areas of school life, as well as governance and operational structures; develop a Di-versity and Inclusion Belief Statement; and develop a comprehensive strategic action plan.The work is just beginning with the committee meeting for the first time in October.As work progresses, it will be reported here.Clare Altland, parentAimee Boudreaux MacIver 96,Sarah Rodriguez 10Sr. Terese Berlin SSA Theology Faculty Donna Wallace, Caitlin Songy Berni 03 Colin MacIver, TheologyDirector of AdvancementWhitney Bryan 02 Department Chair Tracy Washington Wells 89Aimee Corass, parent Diamond Moses 11 Liz Young, parentSheri Gillio, Head of School Katie Rose Norman, 05 Orselda Young 93Cody Driskell Ludwig 04 Mary Claire Rodrigue 16"
