Respect for All Week
The NYCDOE Respect for All (RFA) program was launched to build the capacity of staff and students to actively promote a
community of inclusion in each of our schools. The importance of promoting respect for diversity in our daily practice is vital
to creating and sustaining an inclusive school climate and culture in each of our schools so that all students feel valued,
supported and safe. During Respect for All Week, February 9-13, schools across the city will have the opportunity to highlight
and build upon ongoing programs to help students, staff, and communities gain a better understanding of diversity.
