On the cover: The estate of John J. and Helena Raskob was given the name Archmere, “from

the arch to the sea” because of the view through the arch of trees, and later the stone

arches of The Patio, of the river and the community beyond. Today, Archmere Academy

continues to look through the arches of its founding home to the outside world: to renew

its commitment to academic excellence, to promote the advancement of its mission, and to ensure that Archmere Academy remains a premier academic institution.



Dear Friends:

We are pleased to share with you The 2012 Strategic Plan for

Archmere Academy. This blueprint for Archmere builds upon its

strong 80-year foundation and charts a vision for the school’s future.

Ultimately, Archmere will realize this vision because of you –

because of your faithful devotion to the Archmere legacy and your

commitment to the achievement of Archmere’s future.

We could not have crafted this plan without the participation

of hundreds of people representing the key constituencies of

the Archmere community: alumni, parents, students, faculty,

administrators, trustees, community supporters and benefactors.

Information from focus groups, interviews and surveys, combined

with market trend and data analysis, provided content for intensive

deliberations by five Board-led committees over nine months.

The Plan underscores Archmere’s fundamental commitment to its

founding mission, vision and history and allows Archmere to expand

upon that mission and to advance in an ever-changing world. We

invite you to embrace the five key themes of The Strategic Plan and

help Archmere achieve the related goals identi ed for each theme.

We hope that you will join us in this ambitious undertaking and

help Archmere realize the vision of The 2012 Strategic Plan.

Thank You for Your Continued Support,

The Board of Trustees of Archmere Academy

Reverence Zeal Wisdom Community Respect
