I am happy to announce Saturday Academy’s new strategic plan[1] recently ratified by our board of directors[2]. After 36 years of solid, stable programs, what’s to plan? Strategic plans focus the organization and set priorities for change. We are fortunate to have many more opportunities, class topics, new partnerships, ideas for entirely new programs than we have time to do them. Our plan helps us focus. We also have many operational and program improvements we’d like to accomplish. So again, our plan sets the priorities for what we’ll tackle each year.
