Admissions Update

Compass’ admissions for the 2023-24 academic year are now closed. Our enrollment capacity has been met, and unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any further applications at this time. However, we encourage families to reach out to Aimee, Dean of Admissions, who will be happy to provide information about any potential opportunities that may arise as space becomes available. We look forward to meeting you!

Hi, I’m Aimee

The Dean of Admissions (and student life) here at Compass, I’m passionate about assisting our thriving community of complex learners and their families while making Compass a place of potential for each student. Providing resources and guidance, I love to help ensure our learners and their families have the tools they need to succeed.

In addition to helping our current community, I’m always excited to meet new learners and families that could benefit from Compass’ program!

Compass Parent

“It is very difficult to find a program for a child, who needs some extra help and support, a child, who is learning at a pace different from regular peers. The first time I visited Compass High School I was not only impressed, I was shocked, in a good way!”

Compass Parent

“Compass has turned out to be a good place for [my son] to feel emotionally safe and available to learn. I think the best thing about Compass is the number of talented teachers.”

Our admissions process

The admissions process at Compass High School involves careful analysis and consideration of each applicant’s information. In order to ensure that there is a good fit between school and student and we are able to meet every student’s needs, we look at applicants in a holistic way. Therefore, the review process can only begin after all documentation is received.

    • Tour campus.

    • Submit application, required documents, and $180 application fee.

    • Interview with parents and student.

    • Admissions decision.

  • It is to your advantage to apply early to allow time for application review, scheduling a shadow visit, and completion of the process.

    Applications are due no later than February 9 to be considered for the following school year.

    Should there be space available, we will accept applications throughout the year for possible mid-year transfers.
