A Strategic Vision for Pacifica

November 17th, 2015

Pacifica 2018

On behalf of the Pacifica Christian High School community, it is our pleasure to introduce Pacifica 2018, Fortis Fundamentum—a strategic vision for Pacifica Christian. We believe thoughtful planning, careful execution, and intentional resource development are critical to any non-profit, and we take these very seriously at Pacifica. At this exciting time in the school’s history, Pacifica must be a highly nimble, sharply focused, student-first institution.  We seek to offer our students a comprehensive, Christian, college-preparatory education. We are confident that executing this three-year strategic plan will allow Pacifica to provide students with a preeminent education that prepares them to think and live well. Pacifica 2018 includes seven key goals with corresponding initiatives that will guide the Board of Trustees and Administration in successfully developing the school during its founding years. In the coming months and years, Pacifica’s Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, students, parents, and supporters will all work together to grow the school and ensure it has a strong foundation for the future. Join us in giving thanks for God’s continued provision for Pacifica.  We ask you to join with us in prayer as we move our beloved school forward. Sincerely,
David O'Neil
Head of School		Keith Carlson
Board Chairman
