IMS 2023-28 Strategic Plan
Our Strategic Plan
In summer 2022, we embarked on a journey to shape the future of Island Montessori. Through family surveys, staff discussions, and board input, we gathered valuable insights to guide our next steps.
After sorting through hundreds of ideas, we identified five key focus areas—the pillars of our new five-year strategic plan. Grounded in our mission and vision, this plan is designed to support the growth of every student and staff member.
We’re excited about the path ahead and look forward to achieving these goals together as a community!
