2 LATIN SCHOOL OF CHICAGO • STRATEGIC PLAN 2025-2029 FRAMEWORK & PROCESS Throughout the 2024-2025 school year, we engaged in an inclusive and holistic process to refresh existing priorities from the previous strategic plan and revise our goals in light of opportunities for growth and innovation. Our strategic planning process was intentionally broad, inclusive, and iterative, ensuring the plan reflects the diverse voices of our community. Through surveys, listening sessions, leadership meetings, focus groups, and work teams, we gathered input, insight, and ideas that guided our process and informed each draft. Across these opportunities and through many perspectives, the feedback we received was consistently aligned around Latin's shared values of excellence, community, and integrity. We saw these values reflected across all areas of the school from curriculum development and aligning co-curricular programs, to attracting exceptional educators and building a stronger community. We also learned about the critical role the values have and will continue to play in inspiring our students to pursue their passions and lead lives of purpose and excellence. In this way, our mission, vision, and values serve as both our foundation and our aspiration. Wherever our students come from, and wherever they are headed, Latin supports, challenges, and prepares them. With that enduring purpose, we proudly present our new strategic plan: Forging Lives of Purpose through Excellence, Community & Integrity. 15 LEADERSHIP GROUP MEETINGS with more than 200 faculty, staff, parents/guardians, and trustees 15 IN-PERSON & VIRTUAL Strategy Lab focus group meetings for Middle and Upper School students, alumni, parents/guardians, faculty and staff 6 WORK TEAMS composed of school leadership, faculty, staff, and trustees A community survey with 380 RESPONSES
