VERITAS DIVERSITY STATEMENT

 

Metrowest Boston is a dynamic and culturally rich region. Families from all over the globe come in pursuit of the excellent education and the many opportunities Boston holds. Veritas finds itself naturally reflective of this diverse community.

​

Among our students and staff, we are 45% White, 28% Asian, 11% Multiracial, 10% Hispanic, and 6% Black. At last count, 45 of the world’s 195 countries (nearly a quarter!) are currently represented at Veritas.

 

At Veritas we believe that all human beings are created in the image of God, and that we are one body in Christ. It is our privilege to reflect Christ’s body by being multiracial and multicultural, and we strive to foster an environment that promotes listening, affection and appreciation for one another across cultures and races. We believe this attitude, coupled with our desire and determination to fulfill Jesus’ call to do justice and to love mercy, will be a source of lasting change for the next generation. We fulfill this through love and service to one another within our school community and beyond our doors.

 

Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body - whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free - and we were all given one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. 1 Corinthians 12:12-14
