Knowing that names are central to identity and belonging, students and staff were asked to complete a name survey as part of our scanning process. We had a hunch that not all community members were being addressed by their correct names. The results showed us that there are a handful of people that don’t feel seen by our community yet. About 17% of our population do not feel comfortable correcting others when their name is said incorrectly. Our next steps are to find ways to ensure that everyone in building feels like they belong enough that they can tell each other who they are. This includes using phonetic spelling for guests (such as on-call staff), to see when they arrive, checking in with families to make sure we are using the preferred name, and doing classwork around identity and the power of names in any context.
