ARCHITECT SCHOOLS BAY AREA HOW TO
The Bay School is committed to providing an education that works to dismantle ongoing legacies of settler colonialism by expanding our understanding of history recognizing the hundreds of indigenous nations who continue to resist, live, and uphold their sacred relations across their lands and considering how to repair historical and present harm. We further acknowledge that colonization is ongoing and continues to adversely affect indigenous people here and around the world. The Bay Area was the site of trade, travel, gathering, and healing for more than a dozen Native tribes, many of whom continue to live and thrive here. In keeping with the Bay Precept of living with kindness and honesty and being careful truth tellers, we acknowledge that the Bay School campus sits on the land of the Village of Yelamu, which is the traditional, unceded territory of the Ramaytush-speaking people, one of eight nations now referred to as Ohlone. Community is more like a verb for us, practiced in Morning Meetings and in the many ways students engage with their peers and the staffulty. It fosters collaboration, human-centered problem solving, and an aspiration to live in relationship with one another. It sustains us and allows us to go further in both our intellectual and personal development. Community at Bay is more than a buzzword.
