• Compass Parental-Family Involvement Plan

    2020-2021

    Our mission at Compass is to prepare our students to be lifelong learners. We prepare our students for this challenge through collaboration, building relationships, implementing small group instruction, and providing active engagement in all our lessons to ensure all students learn.  Our school envisions the highest level of success for every student and in order to accomplish this goal, teachers, parents, students and families must work together in a collaborative partnership. Each year, we will develop a Parental-Family Involvement Plan to provide regular opportunities for us to exchange ideas about how we can support and promote the educational growth of each student.  Listed below are ways in which you can become involved in your child’s educational experience during the school year! All activities are subject to change.
