PCA acknowledges that New Mexico is a culturally rich and diverse community.  PCA is committed to celebrating New Mexico's unique population.

By rejecting our explicit bias and examining our implicit bias, PCA acknowledges that we must develop cultural competency.  PCA commits to developing cultural competency by:

• Valuing diversity
• Engaging in cultural self-assessments
• Understanding the dynamics of difference
• Developing cultural knowledge
• Adapting to cultural differences
• Establishing cultural reciprocity

To improve not just diversity tolerance and acceptance, but diversity celebrations, we commit to develop cultural competency through learning more about our students and families, more about our state, and more about New Mexico's history.
