SHA-Cordecho-Summer23

SPIRIT. MIND. BODY. CORDECHO 15 STRATEGIC PLAN Progress Report In the ADVANCEMENT DOMAIN, Strategic Planning Committee Co-Chair Joan Horrigan Maira ’77, Head of School Jennifer Demert, Director of Advancement Susan Reiser Daniels ’92, and Alumnae Associate Sydney Schmidt Chambrone ’15 are working with industry experts to enrich SHA’s capabilities in nurturing relationships, effectively stewarding donors, and building capacity in the interest of advancing SHA’s mission. Work has begun in the ENROLLMENT DOMAIN to create a comprehensive marketing and enrollment plan with the initial target of families who may not have previously considered an allgirls Catholic education. Utilizing the talents of Uplifter Video and photographer Mark Mulville, we are moving towards the launch of a social media campaign highlighting Sacred Heart’s unique value propositions as well as highlights of the SHA experience through the lens of current students. One of Sacred Heart’s strategic objectives within the STUDENT LIFE DOMAIN was the formation of a team to assess the school’s current wellness programming and to make recommendations for even more effective support of student mental health and well-being. While care for the whole student—in spirit, mind, and body—has always been foundational to SHA’s educational approach, recent studies point to increased anxiety and depression in teens across the nation. Sacred Heart has pledged to take a proactive approach to student care, building upon our existing academic, spiritual, athletic, and cocurricular offerings. SHA has added to the wellness team by hiring a full time social worker, Robyn Stanley Dhand ‘09. The wellness team is meeting through the summer months to prepare for the 2023-2024 academic year.
