Strategic Plan

Over the 2021-2022 school year, TLS’ community dreamt together about the school’s future.

  • How will we continue to cultivate authentic learning and amplify curiosity in meaningful ways?
  • What does it mean to expand a culture of belonging and continue to embrace the global community that makes us unique?
  • What does it look like to actively and responsibly steward our beautiful campus?
  • What are the organizational structures the school will need to live boldly while remaining nimble?  

Our students, faculty, families, alumni and Board of Trustees all offered exciting ideas through work sessions, focus groups and surveys. The Board’s Strategic Thinking Committee then synthesized contributions into a series of priorities and initiatives that span near-, mid- and long-term horizons. Below are the graphics for these priorities across the horizons.
