Our Strategic Plan
From a challenging two years which included a global pandemic, a complete closing of the school, a gradual opening of the school and then strengthened inquiry and return of families to the school, The Shenker Academy had the time to reflect on difficult two school years and try to envision the future of the school. As we always focus on ensuring that our graduates are equipped to participate and thrive in a future that may be different from the present, we also looked at our sustainability and the continuation of Shenker Academy and its vitality to the community.
This strategic Plan, a vision for the next 5 years, outlines an ambitious program to build on the Shenker Academy’s history and strength in order to meet the needs of the 21st century Las Vegas community and to prepare our students for the challenges they will face in this rapidly changing world.
Our Kindergarten graduate will enter Elementary schools in the next fall, and will graduate from high school in 2032-33, entering a world that we know will be different than today in a way we cannot imagine. This plan is designed to give those students the skills, habits, of learning, and passion for living lives of meaning that will help them navigate the future.
The Shenker Academy has always reinvented itself to meet the need of the Las Vegas evolving community. Founded in 1981, Shenker Academy holds a beautiful facility equipped with all academic and technological needs of its students. As our Las Vegas community grows and becomes stronger and more diverse, our school is growing too. Serving children from 12-month-old to Kindergarten, Shenker Academy is a vibrant preschool in the Las Vegas education arena.
To develop this plan, our board of trustees, parents, teachers, and supporters of the school engaged in a discussion which resulted with an approved strategic plan guided by reframing of the school mission to focus more sharply on the core studies and the way it will be done.
