Developing an inclusive and belonging environment among students is crucial because it helps students feel valued, respected, and supported in their learning environment. When students feel like they belong and are included, they are more likely to participate, engage, and thrive academically and socially.

Inclusive environments also promote diversity and encourage students to learn about and appreciate different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. By prioritizing inclusion and belonging, Wiseburn Unified School District creates a positive and welcoming environment that benefits all students.
