介绍

In 2022, the Board of Trustees formally adopted a two-year extension of our strategic plan, Bridge to 2022.

A committee comprised of board members, school professional community members, parents/guardians and alumni gathered input from the Head-Royce community and the larger educational world to frame major goals and strategies to move the School forward as a leader in 21st Century education. This process was intentionally inclusive, 开放, and grounded in the belief that the best strategic thinking comes from a genuine curiosity and an inquisitive mindset.

The plan directly supports the School’s mission to meet the needs of our students in ever-changing times.
