“A strategic plan–for any organization, educational or otherwise–it’s important because it sets the course of action.”

“Now that we have the good infrastructure in place, we’re able to be probably even more strategic at a higher level, so our community can expect to see more focus on instruction and academic and career planning, in addition to things we might expect, like fiduciary responsibility and facilities.”

“The strategic plan really sets the tone for our organization, so it’s really important for our students, families, and staff to have good working knowledge of the plan.”
