What is IDAC?
Intercultural Diversity Advisory Council (IDAC) draws members from parents to represent our school at district level climate assessment/problem-solving meetings. The primary purpose of the Intercultural Diversity Advisory Council (IDAC), originally formed in 1988 as the Intercultural Advisory Council, is to assist in the formation and review of policies that assure non-discriminatory practices in all operational areas of the Clovis Unified School District. Its further mission is to assist in improving the cultural environment of the District.

We are celebrating multicultural week on March 7-11, 2022. We will kick off the week by having hula dancers perform at lunchtime on Monday March 7th. Clovis High Folklorico dancers will perform on Tuesday and Clovis East KPOP dancers will perform on Wednesday. We will be holding a Fashion Show on Thursday morning, March 10th.  This is an opportunity for students to dress in clothing from their culture and be acknowledged on stage. If your student is interested in dressing up and participating in the show, please click on the attachment and return it to the Cedarwood office. Along with wearing clothing representing their heritage, we also would like a short paragraph describing the clothing and what occasions it would be worn. Students will also be participating in games from different cultures during recess. We will also highlight fun facts from various cultures each day on our morning announcements.
