Corona del Mar High honored for diversity

Corona del Mar High School has been named a distinguished school in Orange County thanks to its program unifying the campus’ diverse groups.

Orange County Human Relations bestowed the honor upon three schools in Orange County.

Corona del Mar High School showed exceptional contributions in promoting, nurturing, protecting and cultivating a campus that is safe, welcoming and equitable, county officials said.

The school was recognized for its campaign to bring diverse campus groups together through the message of “Ubuntu,” or the “Spirit of Community.”

Orange County Human Relations acts as the bridge-building arm of the county, promoting a vision of community diversity and strength.

School officials will be honored at the Human Relations Awards 37 Gala Celebration May 1 at the Grove of Anaheim.
