Strategic Vision

The Educational Mandate of Our Time

At The Bishop’s School, we pursue this guiding question: “How do our students learn and grow best?” This is our North Star as we strive to create a Bishop’s education that is uniquely empowering. The opportunities and challenges before us require not only superb academic skills, but also well-being and purpose at each student’s core. This is what high-performing students need, and Bishop’s will lead the way.

“What does it mean to be a great school? It means meeting the needs of today’s ambitious students. It means providing them with a new philosophical approach to achieving academic excellence – one that enables them to travel as far as their ambitions will take them.”

– Ron Kim, Head of School

Investment Priorities

Six Interconnected Strategies

To achieve Bishop’s groundbreaking strategic plan, we are striving toward six interconnected fundraising goals. If we are successful, this will become the most creative and ambitious campaign in Bishop’s history. We are building a platform for student achievement that is unique, ready to enhance Bishop’s reputation as a national leader among independent schools.

Our Community in Action

For more than a century, Bishop’s has been blessed with forward-thinking leaders and supporters. Today, a new cohort charts the path ahead, and success lies in our power to unify around a common vision.

“Bishop’s can’t rest on its laurels. We must be intentional about what is needed for today’s Knights to be greater than our generation, and for their kids to be greater, and so on. We are investing in people and programs that transform today and evolve for the future.”

– Doug Arthur ’99; P ’30, ’32, President, Board of Trustees; Campaign Co-Chair
