Strategic Plan

This Strategic Plan, A “Beacon” of Excellence, is the result of many months of work and the contributions of many committed people. It was developed by a Strategic Planning Committee composed of current Giddens families, alum families, board members, and Giddens staff (listed below.) Committee members volunteered many hours to collect and analyze feedback, discuss strategies and approaches, and craft this plan. Each of them made a significant contribution, and we thank them all.

The leadership team has already started work to implement the goals of this ambitious plan:

  • A Light in the Community: Building New Local Partnerships after the Neighborhood Transition
  • Management and Development of a Talented and Diverse Workforce
  • Building Equity and Excellence through Sustainable Organizational Systems
  • Expanding Professional Expertise for Extraordinary Learning
  • Innovating Organizational and Programmatic Growth Through Progressive Financial Modeling

We invite you to learn more about each of these initiatives below.
