Golden Hills School’s current Strategic Plan was launched in 2019 and is set to guide the school through 2026. This plan serves as a thoughtful roadmap for the future, created through a collaborative process involving parents, guardians, faculty, staff, and the Board of Trustees. The cross-section of community members was selected for their experience, volunteer engagement, and expressed interest in shaping the school’s direction.

The Strategic Plan outlines six core goals that reflect the mission, values, and long-term vision of GHS:

  1. Demonstrate Educational Excellence
  2. Demonstrate Organizational Excellence
  3. Maintain a Vibrant School Culture and Pride
  4. Develop and Execute a Comprehensive Marketing and Admissions Program
  5. Ensure the Financial Stability of the School
  6. Maintain and Improve Facilities to Serve the GHS Community

Implementation of the Strategic Plan is led by the Head of School, with oversight and priority-setting from the Board of Trustees. Progress is assessed and reviewed annually, and updates are shared with the GHS community through a variety of channels, including Head of School communications, the Annual Report, the school website, and Board updates.

This living document guides decisions across all aspects of school life—from academics and admissions to facilities and culture—ensuring that every initiative supports the long-term strength and sustainability of Golden Hills School.

The next phase of strategic planning will begin during the 2026–2027 school year, allowing the school to revisit, refine, and expand upon the goals based on community feedback, current needs, and future aspirations.

Together, as a committed and collaborative school community, Golden Hills continues to build on its core strengths and advance its mission of providing exceptional education in a supportive and dynamic environment.
