Strategic Planning

Announcement:

A Message from the School Board

St. Croix Prep is planning for its future—and we are eager to hear your voice. St. Croix Preparatory Academy is launching its first formal strategic planning process to define priorities for the next 3–5 years. We’ll listen widely, share progress, and make clear, student-focused choices.

During the Fall of 2025, you’ll have the opportunity to share your perspective about what’s working well and how we can continue to improve at St. Croix Prep. This web page will be updated throughout the process. We anticipate a final document ready for the board’s approval in December, 2025.

Thank you for partnering with us.
