Community Perspectives

Community Perspectives are group gatherings across all grade levels that are lead by members of the CSB faculty and staff.  In these discussions, we hope to engage in ongoing conversations on a variety of topics and share the different perspectives and experiences that we all bring to Cathedral School as parents and educators.  Community Perspectives take place in the evenings (dates to be announced throughout the year) and childcare and dinner is provided.  We encourage parents to attend at least one of these evenings as it is a wonderful opportunity to truly learn and celebrate the diversity that exists within our community.

 Goals of Community Perspectives: 

     * Provide opportunities and experiences to trigger dialogue and reflection upon diverse topics.

    * Deepen identification of one’s own culture and heritage.

    * Raise awareness and to view situations from a variety of perspectives, thus deepening our level of compassion.

    * Strengthen our sense of belonging, our being valued and our sense of community.

    * Contribute our ideas to further strengthen the school community as a whole based upon our discussions and insights.

    * Windows and Mirrors – the importance of seeing yourself reflected in the community and learning from others.
