Greeting Seven Hills Community,

Thank you for the opportunity to address you with a message from the School Board.

Every board meeting begins with the recital of our school mission, “Seven Hills Preparatory Academy engages students in a rigorous Classical education, designed to prepare each one for strong citizenship and life-long learning.” This tradition reminds us of the north star to which we aspire, and the past achievements that have built our strong foundation. These achievements have been small and large, and some of them during my time include expanding to the number of classes for each grade at the Bloomington Campus, replicating grades K-5 at the Richfield Campus, blending both campuses into middle school, and achieving a National Blue Ribbon Award.

With this acknowledgement of the past we are building from, the Board is excited to announce our updated three year strategic plan that outlines a roadmap to the future we aspire to achieve. This three strategic plan outlines an ambitious direction for the next three years and focuses on leveraging the current opportunities before us. The plan lays out efforts in seven areas that will be honed and expanded. But there is a phrase in our mission statement that succinctly states the who and the why of this strategic plan, and will drive all of it: “…preparing each one for strong citizenship and life-long learning.”
As board members, we thank each teacher, staff member, parent/guardian, and community member for making our school the thriving, supportive, and caring educational environment it is for each individual student that walks through our doors on a daily basis. Our school community wouldn’t be what it is without you.

We would also like to remind you that the board is currently taking nominations for community members looking to serve the school by serving on the board. Email the school board shpaschoolboard@shpamn.org by March 15th, 2023, if you are interested.
