PTA DEI Committee
The PS 107 PTA Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Committee aims to work collaboratively and actively with staff, families and students to celebrate diversity and support equity and inclusion within PS 107.

We meet on Zoom the 1st Tuesday of each month. If you are interested in joining the PTA DEI committee, please email our co-chairs:

DEI BOOKLIST
The DEI Booklist spreadsheet was created by the PTA DEI Committee to help families find children's books that feature diverse identities, cultures and perspectives. It's a living, growing list that will hopefully be a resource for families at PS 107 for years to come! We welcome suggestions for the list via the Google Form on the spreadsheet.
