The school community has adopted the following as its shared community agreements based on Kazu Haga's Fierce Vulnerability Considerations.
1. We have the right to be raggedy
2. We communicate in our preferred language
3. We embrace conflict as the spirit of the relationship asking itself to deepen
If you have questions, comments or want to know how you can get involved, email the YYET leadership at equity@washingtonyuying.org.
Please Note: YYET supports Yu Ying's stand against all forms of racism, bigotry, prejudice and mistreatment on the basis of difference. This is true across all lines including faith.
