Strategic Vision
Educating Students to Live Lives that Make a Difference
We can do even more than prepare our students to thrive in the 21st century. We can prepare our graduates to make a difference.
Head of School Darryl J. Ford unveiled the new Strategic Vision in March 2012 and, in May 2016, presented a four-year progress report on work administrators and teachers have done to implement that vision.
“This work is still unfolding as we continue to reinvent classic,” Ford said. A school with a history of excellence is, by definition, Ford said, forward-thinking. “We are looking into the future and recognizing that we can’t know what our students will encounter … we want them to be prepared, agile and ready to make a difference."
Our plan for Penn Charter's future is organized around six goals, each with a set of strategies.
Goal 1: Quakerism Goal 2: Program Content Goal 3: Teaching Goal 4: Time Goal 5: Space Goal 6: Financial Sustainability
