Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging (DEIB) Task Force
Mission Statement: Pullman Public Schools strives to ensure that each and every student achieve their full potential. In pursuit of this mission, the District is working to form the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) Task Force with the goal of improving cultural awareness, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. The task force will work to identify and recommend areas for improvement related to DEIB strategies district-wide to the Board of Pullman Public Schools.
Selection Process
Members of the DEIB Task Force were selected through an application process open to the entire community. We were fortunate to receive a strong number of applications from individuals passionate about making a positive impact within the district.
The selection process involved a thorough review and ranking of each application by the Pullman School District Board of Directors. Board members evaluated applicants based on their experience, perspectives, and demonstrated commitment to DEIB principles. The final appointments were made during a regular board meeting, where the top-ranked candidates were chosen to serve on the task force.
The district's DEIB Task Force will address DEIB issues relevant to the district and its schools and will submit their findings and recommendations to the superintendent and/or board, following Policy and Procedure 4110.
