Embracing Diversity: Dr. Mosallam Speaks at WXYZ’s EDI Forum Crestwood School District’s Superintendent, Dr. Youssef Mosallam, recently took part in a distinguished forum of Arab American leaders from Dearborn and Dearborn Heights. The event, organized as part of WXYZ’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (EDI) Speaker Series, was a unique opportunity for leaders to engage with the WXYZ team and discuss critical issues impacting our community. During the forum, Dr. Mosallam shared valuable insights into the strides being made within the Crestwood School District to promote equity and inclusion. His comments highlighted ongoing efforts to create an educational environment where all students can succeed, regardless of their background. Forums like these are essential as they provide a platform for leaders to exchange ideas and best practices for fostering inclusive communities. Dr. Mosallam’s participation reflects his deep commitment to these values and his dedication to advancing them within our schools. The EDI Speaker Series by WXYZ serves as an important reminder of the strength found in diversity and the importance of understanding and unity. Through events like these, Dr. Mosallam and other community leaders are helping to pave the way for a more inclusive and equitable future for all.

We were also privileged to recognize Isabella Jomaa and Ali Mezher, two Class of 2024 seniors who will soon be attending the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business.
