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.

Change Begins with One Voice

As a learning leader, we’ve created One Voice.  It is a free, age-appropriate curriculum that includes lesson plans and teacher resources for grades K-12.  The content packages use historical facts to create dialogue about our experiences in the country we love – not shy away from it.
