Every school in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston is to be guided by a Strategic Plan. The OLGCS plan was developed, implemented, monitored, and evaluated by the principal and the OLGCS School Advisory Committee with appropriate involvement by the pastor and other stakeholders.

The Strategic Plan for each school has these components:

• Vision and mission
• Goals, objectives, and actions plans for Catholic identity, enrollment, marketing/public relations, educational programs, staffing, finances, development, and facilities
• Community relations
• School improvement plan to address the academic program
• Five-year financial projection
• Facilities plan
• Technology plan
• New initiatives
• Timeline for implementation
