Diversity and Inclusion Courses

Leveraging student diversity and creating an atmosphere of inclusion yields better student outcomes. Our Diversity & Inclusion courses offer practical strategies for teachers to build healthy and inclusive classrooms where all students thrive. Additionally, we have included Stride’s comprehensive “One Voice” curriculum that provides teachers with free access to Diversity & Inclusion lesson plans and resources (grades K-12) that use history as a conversation starter.
