Belonging and Intercultural Competency at Shanghai American School (Video)

I was delighted to return for my fourth visit to Shanghai American School to continue efforts to fostering inclusive school environments grounded in dignity and respect.

This short video highlights student assemblies with 4th, 7th, and 11th graders at the intersection of leadership and belonging, along with employee workshops on belonging. I also collaborated with Belonging Liaisons across both campuses and facilitated an Early Childhood/Lower School faculty session focused on practical strategies to strengthen belonging and kindness.

I’m looking forward to returning in April! Thanks to Renee Couturier, head of educational programs, and James Nelligan, head of school, for their support and leadership.
