2024 ST RA TEGIC PL AN
The 2024 Strategic Plan will act as a forward-facing roadmap to ensure continued progress and prosperity for Woodlands Academy. We strive to expand upon the achievements of the 2013 Strategic Plan, which included the creation of The Center for Global Studies, more robust professional development opportunities for our faculty, and the strengthening of our academic program. These initiatives have helped equip our students with the tools they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive and connected world. Now we look to build upon these successes.
The 2024 plan is the culmination of a two-year extensive and inclusive journey centered on listening to the people of Woodlands Academy, including current and prospective students and families, alumnae, leaders from local middle schools, school administration, and all board members. Informed by the experiences and perspectives of our community, the planning committee, members of the board, and our consultants put together a robust plan to guide the future of Woodlands Academy
