Schools and teachers should provide their students with the opportunity to interact with different perspectives and experiences in order to "raise the level of academic and social discourse both inside and outside the classroom; indeed, such interaction is an education in itself." — U.S. Department of Education, 2011

Promoting diversity in schools is pivotal to teach "that our strength comes from people of different races, creeds, and cultures uniting in commitment to the freedom of all." — U.S. Department of Education, 2011

By minimizing our children's experience with diversity we are denying "the experiences they need to succeed in a global economy, where employers, co-workers, and customers will be increasingly diverse." — Education Secretary Arne Duncan, 2011
