I believe diversity means that all people are not the same or alike. Some people are Black, White, Chinese, Hispanic, Dominicans. You can find diverse in schools offices and in parks you will find diverse. Most people dress different and wear different clothes because of there religion. Some people are gay straight bisexual lesbian because they feel that’s what they want to be. Diversity can be smarter than the other and get straight A’s . Thats what diversity means to me.

Tania, other than a few grammatical/spelling errors, I really liked your post. I am excited you brought up the topic of diverse clothes.
Can you explain the importance of clothes in the diversity of our school? How might this be affected by school uniforms?
