The Sisterhood

You hear a lot about The Sisterhood. It’s a feeling of belonging that each girl experiences a bit differently. At the start of the school year, we welcomed freshmen to our community.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are at the core of who we are.

In June 2021, Carondelet adopted this DEI statement to unify and align our community and stakeholders as well as help guide our decision making and accountability.

Our commitment to these values is unwavering—across all of our work, inside and outside the classroom. They are central to our mission and impact. We know that having varied perspectives helps generate better ideas to solve the complex problems of a changing and increasingly diverse world.

We aspire to achieve a lasting impact throughout our entire Carondelet community in service of the dear neighbor without distinction. We will continue to view our progress through the same social justice lens that drives Carondelet’s efforts to ensure that our culture and behaviors reflect the just world we intend to create.
