Spotlight on Diversity

The Crocker Farm School is proud of its many academic, diversity and
community achievements. Our school derives its uniqueness from the fact
that we have a higher than average number of children from low-income families, a higher
than average number of special needs children, and the largest population of second
language learners in the district. The challenges of these statistics merely encourage us to
achieve and grow academically. We continue to find a variety of ways to understand and
celebrate diversity with our special projects and our innovative teaching. Our community
is the glue that holds things together as we seek maximum participation and involvement.
