Compass Academy is a public charter middle school serving grades six through eight in Southwest Denver. Compass will foster students' abilities to realize their unique strengths and talents, while mastering core academic skills. We use innovative approaches to student learning which includes project-based learning, technology-rich classrooms and learning expeditions which help get students out into the community. Compass also prides itself on our biliteracy program where students receive strong English language development support while simultaneously using and celebrating Spanish language and culture. Our school partners with City Year to utilize Student Success Coaches who provide students with extra support and mentorship. Through strong partnerships with community organizations and nonprofits, Compass is able to bring music, art, career training, life-skills and social activism into the students' school day. Finally, our school engages students in high school choice counseling by hosting high school fairs and visits. At Compass, we deeply believe in developing students to be learners and leaders, not only within the walls of our campus, but in high school, college and beyond.
