The experience left an indelible imprint on me for many reasons, not least of which was how the school, as a collective whole, earnestly strove towards cultivating the essential life skills and values in our students that would be pivotal in achieving their own individual goals.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, I have had the opportunity to serve in a variety of educational leadership roles across Taiwan and Mainland China, including as Principal of The Primacy Collegiate Academy. Throughout my journey, I have had the privilege of watching our graduates flourish in business, engineering, medicine, education, technology, the arts, athletics, public service, entrepreneurship, and many other fields. Their success is a reflection of the enduring values and educational philosophy upon which Primacy was built and reinforces my conviction that true education is about preparing our students for a life of purpose, integrity, and continual growth.<\/p>\n<p>Today, as Chair and CEO of The Primacy Education Group, Inc., it is a privilege to lead an organization that has grown from a single school into a network of educational initiatives, each committed to helping students thrive. Although every school we serve has its own unique identity and community, we are united by a common mission: To empower learners to grow beyond academic achievement by equipping them with the knowledge, character, and adaptability to succeed in an ever-changing world.<\/p>\n<p>Our educational partnerships include both Christian schools that share our faith-based heritage as well as schools from diverse educational backgrounds. As TPEG continues to expand, our focus is not simply on growing the network, but on building stronger schools that put students first, embrace innovation, and provide meaningful and personalized learning experiences rooted in the skills students need for life. We remain committed to preserving the qualities that have always distinguished Primacy: small-school relationships, personalized learning, innovation, and an unwavering focus on student success.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for taking the time to learn more about The Primacy Education Group. I am grateful for the opportunity to share our story with you and look forward to continuing to partner with students, families, and schools as we continue to shape lives through exceptional education.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ashim Pheirim<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;2&#8243; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-100px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;140px|40px|40px|40px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;30px|30px|30px|30px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Message from our Chair\u201cFor the spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.\u201d 2 Timothy 1:7Dr. Ashim PheirimDear Primacy, In 2006, I had the opportunity to serve as a teacher in the infancy of Taipei Adventist Preparatory Academy, known today as The Primacy Collegiate Academy.
