Embracing Each Other’s Differences

As an organization, we foster a culture where differences are valued and interactions are free of bias. It’s a fulfillment of Our Promise, to make a difference and have a positive impact. We know it’s important to listen with intent to better appreciate people with different identities, abilities, backgrounds, and points of view. It can be seen in our classroom, school, and work environments, which are created to make everyone feel that they belong and can be their authentic self. We work hard to ensure a diversity of voices is recognized and represented throughout our organization. Looking ahead to a strong future, we’re committed to providing opportunities where everyone succeeds in the LCG community.

From our corporate headquarters to each classroom, we thrive on the contributions of every individual to our community of learning.
We are one LCG, stronger together.

In the Classroom

Across all our schools, we’re committed to providing a welcoming community that is:

  • Comprised of diverse classrooms that are vital to learning.
  • Designed to provide engaging educational experiences.
  • Reflective of our community and the diversity of the world around us.

We emphasize kindness and empathy and our educators consistently model these behaviors for the children in their care. As educators and caregivers, we play a vital role in shaping the next generation who watch and learn from us.

Reflecting Our Communities

Every child deserves an inclusive environment to feel safe, represented, and accepted. That’s why we’re proud to share Reflecting Our Communities, a program about the diversity of our world, taking different perspectives, and respecting the uniqueness of each person and family.

There are two primary intentions for Reflecting Our Communities :
  1. Encouraging children to share their family culture and traditions with each other.
  2. Sharing the beauty and diversity of the world around us.

Our educational explorations about community come to life in many ways, such as engaging, collaborative activities, posters and photo cards, and music selections.

In the Workplace

LCG takes great pride in offering a supportive work culture, where we are committed to fostering inclusion, diversity, and equity—all things that are fundamental to our success. It starts with educational and training opportunities for all team members, to encourage a commitment to inclusion and diversity across the organization.

Culture Ambassadors, our company-wide initiative for bringing people together and sharing experiences, is comprised of four groups: Diversity and Inclusion, Events and Celebrations, Ideas and Innovation, and Knowledge and Networking. Each group creates experiences to enhance our culture and sense of community, so employees feel valued as individuals.

Being heard is an essential element of feeling included.
