Showcasing Diversity and Inclusion: St. Monica Elementary School

Celebrating Diversity and Inclusivity
Montreal - Thursday, January 27, 2022

In NDG, St. Monica Elementary School, Montreal educator, author and facilitator Shanice Nicole teaches students about #BlackHistory and #BlackHistoryMonth via her book Dear Black Girls. In collaboration with the school’s Spiritual and Community Animator, Samantha Smith, they guide conversation around diversity, leading up to an activity engaging students in a reflection exercise about what makes them different. It’s a way to teach children to celebrate their unique identities. In February, schools across the EMSB network will mark Black History Month with a variety of programs.
