I hope everyone is enjoying this three day weekend. We (the faculty and myself) are excited to see your children this Tuesday, September 5th. Click here to view the Orientation Week Schedule for this week only.
Details re: classes and personalized projects will be communicated once we've had a chance to meet with each student and get to know them. A new permanent weekly schedule will be released in tandem with the personalized details of a student's learning path (the outcome of those meetings).
Advisors are assigned to grades and those adults help facilitate various learning activities, such as the cell phone policy mentioned below. Students may choose to work one-to-one with adults who aren't their grade's advisory leader, so please note team-building and community-based projects are grade based.
These are the facilitators for each grade:
7th graders: Nicole and Ron
8th graders: Kellie and Gabe
9th graders: Ryan
10th graders: Ann and Sandra
11th graders: Louise and Rob
12th graders: Alexandrin (with help from Kendra from time to time)
Opening Week
8:25 AM is the start of the school day. Every day this week, starting at 7:45 AM, I will be at the front entrance greeting each student. My goal is, and will always be to, engender an exchange of mutual respect with every student and their family, when they enter Compass School each day I recognize this will look different for each unique individual. More information for parents and students will be shared over email.
Stay tuned ... be well. Be in touch anytime.
