Dear Presentation Community,

We have been reading every comment, email, and the open letter shared by students and alumnae and continue to listen and learn. We are deeply sorry that any Presentation student was ever made to feel isolated, excluded, or experienced outright racist treatment while at Presentation by anyone in our community, or through our systems, policies, and practices. We are heartbroken to hear of the accounts of racism at Presentation, and are committed to making systemic changes within our community to stop racism, biases, and transgressions.

Even if just one member of our community experienced racism at Presentation, one is too many. Enough is enough, now is the time for action.
