Taking Root

In the Fall of 2011, the Board of Trustees and Administration assessed The

Woods Academy’s mission, history, current standing and needs. The previous

Strategic Plan had come to completion and with new leadership in place, the

Board was eager to create a road map to guide the school over the next five

and even ten years.

We all are very proud of our school, students, and faculty. We have great

confidence in our new Administration and are excited by the new ideas it

brings. But the hallmark of any successful institution is its ability to review its

progress objectively and without bias. Our strategic planning

process included feedback from parents and faculty, a thorough competitive

analysis, and extensive research on marketplace trends and best practices used

in schools across the nation.

The result: a strategic plan that builds on The Woods Academy’s

tradition of excellence and lays the foundation for a thriving 21st

Century school.

The comprehensive plan will be detailed on the website and our progress will be communicated routinely through this blog.

Although the strategic plan represents a fresh look at The Woods Academy,

our priority remains unchanged: to prepare boys and girls to lead lives of

significance each and every day. For nearly four decades, we have been

doing just that. And with this plan and continued support from The Woods

community, our graduates of the future will be prepared better than ever

before. That is significant!
