The 2023-2024 edition of The Ride to Independent Schools Report (The Ride) is The Enrollment Management Association's (EMA) fourth edition of this flagship report. It offers valuable insights into the behaviors and opinions of families applying to independent schools. Previous studies were conducted in 2014, 2017, and 2020. This edition of The Ride was a collaboration between EMA and Mission & Data, EMA's strategic data partner.

The partnership between the head of the school and the senior enrollment leader is critical to the sustainability of independent schools. Join me as we explore the dynamic collaboration between Perry Martin, President of La Salle College Preparatory in Pasadena, CA, and Keenan Kurihara, Vice President of Enrollment Management and Chief Communications Officer at La Salle College Preparatory. During Perry and Keenan's tenure at La Salle, student enrollment grew by over 10 percent, and the school increased its net tuition revenue by over 15 percent. Join us for an insightful exploration of how their strategic approach to enrollment management and communication has fortified La Salle College Preparatory against the challenges confronting independent schools nationwide.
