Ranney Releases Strategic Plan Final Report: Turning Vision into Reality...the Dream Continues


During the 2009–2010 school year, Ranney School developed a three-year Strategic Plan, “Turning Vision into Reality ... The Dream Continues.” An all-encompassing, collaborative effort developed by trustees, administrators, teachers and parents, the Strategic Plan was designed to provide children with a 21st-century education in a culturally stimulating, state-of-the-art environment while maintaining our traditional values. Our school’s mission statement framed the plan’s direction and approach:

Ranney School provides students with an exemplary, well-rounded education, one that promotes the development of every child’s intellectual, personal, creative and moral promise. By serving a diverse community that values a rigorous, wide-ranging program of study, Ranney students are inspired to reach their full potential. Guided by dedicated and compassionate professionals, the Ranney experience is distinguished by the heartfelt bond between student and teacher—the hallowed principle celebrating the unique nature of every child. In an environment with contemporary learning resources, students learn the value of contributing to their local and global communities through leadership and service. The school’s motto—Knowledge, Vision, Honor—is as much an inspiration as it is a social imperative, one that informs the thinking and actions of our students. Awakening students’ intellectual potential and encouraging them to communicate with confidence in their own unique voice remains fundamentalto the Ranney experience. The ultimate success of our students is the result of a simple yet powerful mission–promise: every child will be known and valued.

With this mission as a guide, our strategic plan was developed with one simple goal aimed at fulfilling our mission–promise: to develop opportunities that add to the quality of student life. During the past three years, the school has steadily achieved remarkable milestones and even surpassed its initial goals. Implemented throughout the 2010–2013 school years, the strategic plan’s goals are now nearly 100% achieved and the stage is set for the development of a new set of strategic initiatives in the years ahead.
