Welcome to the Lancaster School District Heritage, Culture & Awareness Website

We are so happy to have you!

On this site you will find information on different countries, some of which are a representation of our Heritage & Culture. We are inclusive, and have made an attempt to include information about as many countries as possible. We are constantly updating it, so please continue to visit the website.

As indicated in the National Education Association, NEA, creating Cultural Awareness helps us all build cultural competence, as this allows us all to thrive in culturally diverse classrooms & schools. Cultural Awareness helps us in the following 5 areas: Value Diversity, Being Culturally Self-Aware, knowing the Dynamics of Differences, Knowledge of Students, Staff Culture, & Adapting to Diversity.

We live in a country where we have the opportunity to connect with people from all over the world. We each have a story, a history, and a beautiful culture & heritage.

Welcome to an opportunity of exploration, learning, inclusion, cultural self-awareness & diversity.

You'll get an opportunity to learn about the culture & heritage of some of the LANCSD staff members that participated.

"We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams." Jimmy Carter
