COMPASS OPTIONS LEARNING PROGRAM
Compass Options Learning Program
Compass Charter Schools’ Options program is our independent study program for grades TK-12. Our program allows parents to be fully involved in all aspects of their child’s daily education while still receiving full academic planning and support.
The Options Program Learning Coach (parent) must desire an active involvement in their child’s education on a daily basis and be fully committed to being the scholar’s primary instructor. Our caring, credentialed Supervising Teachers (ST) provide ongoing guidance and support to families, monitor the use of instructional funds, and keep families informed about CCS enrichment activities.
Scholars and learning coaches work with their assigned, credentialed ST to develop a custom personalized learning plan for scholars. Throughout the year, families connect with their ST to discuss assigned work, manage progress, and review samples and activity logs. In addition to the academic support, each scholar is allocated Educational Support funds. The funds are used to purchase non-sectarian curriculum, supplies, lessons, and classes to enhance scholar learning.
These materials and services are provided by businesses on our approved community provider list.
As an independent study program, the learning coach and the Supervising Teacher work in partnership throughout the year to make sure the scholar is progressing at an appropriate pace. Scholars are expected to participate in educational activities on all school days per the school calendar.
