Faculty Excellence
Invest in Teachers Who Lead the Nation
Through this campaign, we protect our most vital resource: Bishop’s faculty. Nationwide, competition for top teachers has grown especially intense, and San Diego is routinely cited as one of the most expensive cities in the country. As a faculty investor, you help secure Bishop’s as a principal destination for the most sought-after teachers in the country.
One Goal, Two Strategies
Our aim is to uphold Bishop’s teachers as exceptionally caring mentors who are also leading experts in their fields. Two linked strategies get us there.
Become More Competitive in California and Beyond
At Bishop’s, we pay our faculty well, but we are still outpaced by peer schools in key markets. We will solve this long-term challenge in stages until Bishop’s is an unequivocal leader in California and beyond. In this campaign, with your support, we will narrow the compensation gap by at least 50 percent compared to San Francisco peer schools.
Launch a Landmark Bonus System
Almost all schools pay teachers according to experience and adjust for the cost of living. Few reward faculty based on performance. With your support, Bishop’s will launch a bonus system that is truly groundbreaking for recruitment and retention. Your gift makes Bishop’s a beacon for teachers who continually hone their expertise.
