Strategic Plan

FIVE STRATEGIC INITIATIVES FOR 2025-2028

Crest

Looking to the Future - In our apostolic works there has always been a desire to do things in the best possible way, according to the times and circumstances. The quality of what we do must necessarily include care for the person and transmission of Gospel values, but also important to us are the educational methods that we employ and the way in which we organize our centers. In everything that is in our power, we endeavor to work with professionalism and effectiveness.
 
Attentive to the changes in the world, to the advances in science and technology, and to the trends in educational innovation, in each place we look for the most suitable teaching methods. We do this with creative fidelity, preserving and taking care of that which is fundamental for us and at the same time remain open and flexible in order to incorporate the new, always with the end of better serving the persons whom we are educating. 

In order to put this dynamic of constant renovation into practice, it is necessary to have a serious commitment to ongoing formation which enables us and the educators with whom we share the mission to respond to the demands of the society in which we live-Our Educational Style - Handmaids of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Roma 2017
