Priority-2

2. Rich Diversity

We will build on our reputation as the Boston-area independent school that best reflects the world our students will go into through enhanced outreach to students and families from historically under-represented backgrounds and programs designed to foster a deep sense of belonging.


 
Priority-3

3. World-Class Faculty

We will invest in our most valuable resource and the heart of this school—the teachers—ensuring that we can hire, retain, and provide growth for the people who deliver the program, mentor our students, and will lead the evolution of our curriculum in a new era.


 
Priority-4

4. The University and the City of Boston

We will deepen learning opportunities for our students not only through University coursework, but by opening doors to schools and interdisciplinary centers across BU and leveraging Boston as an extension of the classroom.


 
Priority-5

5. Purpose through Research and Action that Matter

We will create avenues for all students to engage in research or take action, large or small, that is personally meaningful and that has a positive impact on others, setting them up for lives of purpose.
