Strategic Plan
In the winter / spring of 2025, Guardian Angels Central Catholic began a strategic planning process. Institutions (schools, businesses, etc.) often create a strategic plan to create a "medium" term vision for their organization. At GACC, our plan is to develop a 3-5 year vision for our school, taking a "big picture" view, in areas from our academics to our Catholic identity to our facilities, and so on.
You can view a wonderful example of a strategic plan from Skutt Catholic in Omaha, by visiting this link: Skutt Catholic Plan. Additionally, you can learn how Kearney Catholic strengthened their Catholic identity through a strategic planning process here: Kearney Catholic Plan.
Over the following months we will seek stakeholder input on our school through a variety of methods - surveys, open forum listening sessions and private meetings. Our strategic planning steering committee will take all the input we receive and use that to write GACC's strategic plan.
