Advisory Board Compass High School

Advisory Board

The founders of Compass High School are committed to developing a new educational option that exemplifies excellence for students with learning differences. Our unwavering commitment to student success has translated in many of our students going on to college studies. We believe each student is unique, and are willing to put in the time and effort to create the perfect integrated learning plan for each student.

The Compass Advisory Board members function as trusted advisors to the school, helping us steer Compass towards innovation and distinction. We are also actively recruiting members for the Board of Trustees, especially those with finance, management, marketing, or other relevant skillsets.
