Welcome to the SVPTA’s Diversity and Inclusion. We are committed to ensure that we PTA for ALL children and that every child has a voice. 

What is DEI?

What can I do in my own school for it to be more inclusive?
 

  • Encourage your own PTA board to add a Diversity & Inclusive Chair position to help apply the D&I to all PTA efforts and activities.

  • Include everyone at the PTA table

  • Listen to ALL voices so your PTA may be an inclusive voice for ALL children.

  • Have flexibility with meeting times. Offer a virtual and in-person option for all meetings to increase accessibility.

  • Provide childcare for your meetings as needed.

  • Integrate cultural holidays and events in all school and PTA calendars and communication

  • Increase diversity in classrooms and in school libraries.
