Looking Forward with Purpose

Impact Our Future: 2022-2027 Strategic Plan

In the 2022-2027 strategic plan we are catapulting Crane to the next level. Change is a constant in life and certainly a natural component of schools. And yet students graduate and move on, administrators and teachers change jobs, and academic practices continuously evolve. To thrive, schools must change. Institutionally, Crane is adept at adapting. In fact, we pride ourselves on doing so with great consideration. At Crane, nearly everything we do is with deliberate and thoughtful intention. 

So even as we find our school on strong and steady ground, we look in anticipation of change to chart a pathway for the future. This striving to constantly improve even when we are strong, exemplifies Crane.

We are thrilled to deliver a visionary plan focused on strengthening the many assets at Crane's core. This plan directs resources and attention to advance what truly distinguishes Crane - supporting excellent teachers, amplifying experiential academics, nurturing distinct learning styles, honoring diverse voices, and promoting a culture of kindness.

Stepping Stones

Crane’s physical plant is so much more than simply a setting for our school. It is beautiful – and gracefully functional – a place that evokes the spirit of experiential education.

With a revised conditional use permit (CUP) in hand, a new campus master plan was developed and adopted in 2012. The master plan serves as the school’s blueprint for the next fifty years. The parking lot expansion (2014) and Oak Tree Quad complex (2017) embody two projects outlined in the master plan that support the school’s immediate and anticipated needs.
