The Bridge | Strategic Plan Process 2021 - 2022
Strategic Planning
It is with great enthusiasm that Holy Comforter Episcopal School announces its strategic plan, The Bridge. Every five years, our Board of Trustees works together to establish a plan with long-term goals for the future. In the fall of 2021, we embarked on a 10-month strategic planning process that will engage all facets of our school community and will offer opportunities for participation. We have partnered with Christina Drouin, the founder and CEO of the Center for Strategic Planning, a consulting firm based in New Jersey that specializes in independent schools, to facilitate our planning process.
Our Strategic Planning Committee (SPC), composed of parents, board members, alumni, faculty, and staff, will tackle a range of tasks during the strategic planning process. In order to ensure a successful process, students, faculty and staff, alumni, parents, board members, and friends of the school all had meaningful opportunities to engage in and contribute to the process. We hope you will join us and contribute as we build the bridge to our future.
