Education & Conferences
Each year, our students, faculty and staff attend nationally-recognized summits to address diversity, equity and inclusion in education, including NAIS's People of Color Conference (POCC) and Student Diversity Leadership Conference (SDLC).
Students also have opportunities to attend smaller local meet-ups, including the Words Matter Youth Summit at Loyola High School. Several Mayfield faculty are currently pursuing intensive leadership training through SEED (Seeking Educational Equity & Diversity), an organization founded in 1987 by Peggy McIntosh, author of “White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack.”
