Celebrating diversity at North Babylon High School

North Babylon High School recently welcomed guest speakers from different faiths
to speak to students to promote love and acceptance for all.
Over the course of two days, four different speakers representing the Islamic, Hindu,
Christian and Jewish faiths, explained major beliefs and practices, discussed prejudices and
common misconceptions, as well as shared contributions their faiths have had on the world
and local communities.
In keeping with the goal of celebrating diversity, students then reflected on their
increased knowledge of the different religions and found similarities that connect rather
than separate them.
