Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Our Mission

THE BALDWIN SCHOOL, AN INDEPENDENT COLLEGE PREPARATORY SCHOOL, DEVELOPS TALENTED GIRLS

INTO CONFIDENT YOUNG WOMEN WITH VISION, GLOBAL UNDERSTANDING AND THE COMPETENCY TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT AND ENDURING CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WORLD. THE SCHOOL NURTURES OUR STUDENTS’ PASSION FOR INTELLECTUAL RIGOR IN ACADEMICS, CREATIVITY IN THE ARTS AND COMPETITION IN ATHLETICS, FORMING WOMEN CAPABLE OF LEADING THEIR GENERATION WHILE LIVING BALANCED LIVES.

The Baldwin School is committed to the continuous growth and development of our diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. This work strengthens our community as home to a vibrant mix of cultures, people and perspectives, where we embrace each person as a unique individual, recognizing and celebrating our differences and similarities.

Over the last few years, Baldwin has reaffirmed its commitment to addressing the needs of all of our students, recognizing the experiences specific to our Black, Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) community members and nurturing a healthy, safe and inclusive educational environment. All of our DEI initiatives aim to foster and model respectful engagement and open dialogue. Thoughtful DEI programming for all of our constituents helps ensure that every student is seen, heard and supported.

Baldwin is committed to strengthening its hiring, staffing and retention processes to ensure the recruitment of faculty and staff with diverse backgrounds. The goal is to ensure that faculty, staff and administrators at Baldwin represent the diversity of the student body and the world.

We look forward to implementing additional initiatives in the future. Within these pages you’ll learn of the direction Baldwin has taken to listen, enact and engage within our Baldwin community.
