Fayerweather is committed to developing a strong sense of community in which every member feels valued. We strive for a diverse staff and student body with varied backgrounds of race, religion, ethnicity, family structure, and sexual orientation. We expect that individual beliefs and feelings will be shared and valued, and conflicts acknowledged, explored and peacefully resolved. Curriculum at Fayerweather is rich and varied, with emphasis on multicultural and anti-bias learning. Our goal is to broaden students' views of themselves, local, social and global communities . Fayerweather’s Diversity Committee, made up of parents, staff and board members, actively supports the work of educating the FSS community about issues of racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, peace and social justice through a variety of discussions, film-nights, book groups, staff training and outreach.
