Reflections on a Moment in History

Last week we witnessed a pivotal historical event take place in Washington, DC, with the inauguration of VP Kamala Harris as the first female, the first Black woman and the first person of South Asian descent to become U.S. Vice President.

This morning our Senior School students heard from four of their peers, all members of either our Social Justice and/or Diversity Groups, and Ms. Denise Steadman on what her swearing-in means to them. Have a listen to their reflections here.

Land Acknowledgment

The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
