Legacy Forward
From Headmaster Pete Sanders
As we stand here, over 130 years since the founding of Memphis University School, our vision is focused on the decades at our doorstep. Our Strategic Plan, launched February 2020, demands both allegiance and action in its very name: Legacy Forward.
Thus, we join together as supporters of MUS, pledging again our allegiance to our Mission, Creed, and Philosophy, as we shape the future for our boys and pave the way for the organizations, cities, and regions they will shape.
We know the campus and endowment must evolve to continue delivering a mission that must never change – preparing boys for college, leadership, and lives imbued with the values set forth in our Community Creed: truth and honor, scholarship, service, respect, humility, involvement, and accountability.
Through the capital campaign, Bold Vision Bright Future, and our ambitious goals, we will transform our campus, strengthen our endowment, recruit, retain, and support the best faculty, broaden our reach, and enrich our student experience.

"The Mid-South - indeed, the world - needs MUS. This institution and its alumni have had a profound influence on their communities. Now is the time to assure that the campus, its teachers, and its programs continue to serve as a beacon of excellence for future generations."

The Plan
It is time for MUS to invest in our infrastructure and improve our endowment. We must transform our campus to meet the curricular, technological, and design standards expected at a premier independent school. Through thoughtful planning and significant philanthropy, investments in our 94-acre campus will ensure the school provides a superior learning and teaching experience that will serve boys for future generations.

The Progress
Since the school's founding, MUS visionaries have sown the seeds for the great school our students now enjoy. Through Bold Vision Bright Future, we have the opportunity to plant investments now that will grow and strengthen over the years, providing for the MUS boys of tomorrow. As our mission demands, we will enhance the hallmark experiences that support academic excellence, cultivation of service and leadership, and the development of well-rounded young men of strong moral character.
And the virtues of our motto, Veritas Honorque, will connect every element of the campaign.
Memphis and the world need scholars, creators, and leaders imbued with this sense of truth and honor, as well as scholarship, service, respect, humility, involvement, and accountability. We count on you and other visionary supporters in our community to take on our Bold Vision and prepare our boys for a Bright Future. Read More
