The Racial Equity and Inclusion team is made up of teachers and staff who listen to and learn from students to shift our practices to be more inclusive and responsive to student needs.  

Somerset believes student to student and student to adult connections in our school community are a key component to create a welcoming community.

Somerset students in grades four and five have multiple opportunities to be leaders at school through “buddy classrooms,” student council representatives, and becoming peer mentors. 

Somerset students feel connected, supported and valued. We foster strong partnership, outreach and engagement within our diverse Somerset community to ensure that all students and families have equitable access to resources and experience a sense of belonging.

Somerset implements an aligned literacy routine that ensures all students in kindergarten through 5th grade and students in the Advanced Learning (AL) program experience daily high-quality instruction in word recognition and language comprehension in order to become skillful and strategic readers.
