The diversity of the Revere faculty and student body is its strength. Our faculty and students come from many backgrounds, neighborhoods and countries representing a United Nations of cultures. Revere students graduate with a strong understanding of different cultures, languages, and customs. They develop a sophisticated ability to meet the global challenges that face the world, with a sensitivity that students in a more insulated environment sometimes do not possess. Revere students emerge with the leadership skills that they will need to navigate the world of tomorrow.
