Embrace Diversity

The second theme for this year was “Embrace Diversity”, as a tie in to the “diverse and inclusive” aspect of the Harvard-Westlake Mission Statement. Mr. Brabbée was the creator and presenter for this theme, and he shared a wonderful story about a powerful experience he had as a high school wrestler with someone from a completely different background:

We on the Character Committee also sponsored a diversity board for people on campus to share a little about the important pieces of their identity. The diversity board was a hit, for many people posted post-it notes, pictures, and artwork to express themselves and share their identity with the community.
