VISION 2020 St. Pius X Catholic High School 2015-2020 Strategic Plan Dear Friends of St. Pius X Catholic High School: In January of 2015, a committee comprised of parents, faculty, community members, and friends of St. Pius X came together to create a plan with the goal of taking St. Pius X to new levels of excellence. Led by marketing consultant and Regents Professor of Marketing Emeritus from Georgia State University, Dr. Ken Bernhardt, the group embarked on a self-study under two postulates: first, we have an outstanding Catholic high school and second, we are committed to a legacy of continuous improvement to take this school to new levels of accomplishment and recognition. From the beginning dialogue, it was decided that with the dualleadership model being implemented at St. Pius X upon the arrival of a new president, this plan was not designed to be comprehensive of everything we do at St. Pius X. Areas the committee determined to be excellent; would continue to be excellent. Instead, the focus of this plan would be to identify the most important things the school wanted, or needed, to do differently over the next three to five years. Hopefully, this plan will provide a vision intended to elevate our expectations and performance. It is meant to challenge us, and to serve as a catalyst for planning and action. One might ask, “Why do this at all?” The simple answer is, if we want St. Pius X to continue to strive and provide the very best formation possible for our students—spiritually, academically, and physically, we must. We owe it to our families who enroll their children seeking an outstanding, Catholic, college-preparatory education. This plan, entitled VISION 2020, is part of our continuous improvement efforts to lead us to that reality. Sincerely,
Chad Barwick President
