The Archmerean Charting a Vision for Archmere’s Future: The 2012 Strategic Plan In November 2012, the Board unveiled The 2012 Strategic Plan for Archmere Academy: “a blueprint for Archmere that builds upon its strong 80-year foundation and charts a vision for the school’s future.” As you will see in the pages of this Archmerean, work has already begun to bring Archmere closer to this vision. In the cover photo, (taken by Steve Lemak ‘89), several young students are talking with one another as they walk along the colonade of the McLaughlin/Mullen Student Life Center together toward Saint Norbert Hall. As we continue on this journey of realizing the goals of The Plan, let us remember that our ultimate goal is to continue to walk together, upholding our mission and heritage, and working in community with one another to maintain an educational experience that inspires “young men and women prepared for every good work.” Board of Trustees Barbra Frank Andrisani, Chair, Academic Affairs Committee Matthew J.
