At Armstrong, we recognize that diversity isn’t just about our learning challenges— our neurodiversity—as a dyslexic community.

Diversity encompasses— among other things— race, socio-economic class, cultural heritage, gender, age, and sexual orientation. It’s what makes a community unique and rich and ever growing.
Armstrong’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) task force team is working hard to educate our own community on what it means to be truly inclusive. We want all members of our community to be seen— to feel respected, valued, and encouraged to show up as their fully authentic selves. To this end, our staff and teachers regularly engage in classes, readings, and discussions—many designed by some of the best consultants on diversity—to build on their sensitivity to, and understanding of, our eclectic community.
At Armstrong, we are also aware of the importance of affinity groups, such as the GSA (Gender and Sexualities Alliance). While still in its infancy, this group will eventually provide support and solace for students who belong to the LGBTQ+ community and/or whose family members do.
Armstrong’s outreach is not just confined to our campus. Armstrong has a resource list of books, feature films, short films, podcasts, etc. that raises awareness about DEI and its importance in building a stronger, safer, better world for us all for our parents and care givers. In additional, every month, parents and caretakers are encouraged to take part in a discussion group whose aim is to promote understanding and empathy for all the people in our community and the world at large.
At Armstrong, we hope not just to unlock the minds of our dyslexic students, but to inspire our entire community to carry on the important work of social justice.
