English is more than memorizing grammar rules and writing essays. It’s about tapping into the shared moments that make us all human. It’s about being vulnerable enough to take risks in order to open up and engage in meaningful connections with real and fictional people. At Compass we want students to author the best possible stories of their lives and our collective futures. We want students to be reading and writing from a place of authenticity which can only be gained through deliberate social-emotional learning and skill development.
