A compass rose? a beautiful navigation piece that has been used for centuries to guide and keep us on the right path. Now our compass rose is guiding us down a new path way for education where all children receive the love and support that they need to learn and grow.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide an academic environment where all styles of learning are recognized, respected, and encouraged so that each student?s unique genius can be fully expressed.
Our Philosophy
? The School will be a holistic school, which will provide an environment where each child can express their individual genius by learning the way that they learn best.
? Each classroom will be set up to include multiple skill levels. This will allow the opportunity for all children to grow and learn at their own pace without the stress of feeling left behind.
? The teachers, administrators, and all other helping hands will be at the school for the sole purpose of supporting each child to reach their highest potential in a healthy, loving, safe, and nurturing environment.
Testing and Grading
? Upon enrollment, a neuro-developmental and academic screening will be done for each child to identify learning styles, strengths, and individual genius.
? An individualized curriculum plan will be set up for each child. No number or letter grades will be given. In place of a traditional grading system, a Progression of Curriculum portfolio will be kept for each child and it will be updated weekly. This will be our schools way of grading.
? A progression evaluation using national standardized testing will also be used to evaluate each child?s progress a minimum of twice yearly.
Enrichment and Our Community
? An enrichment curriculum will be provided. It will include: music, art, foreign language, drama, and community learning projects/options.
? The School will also provide numerous activities to support growth and development. These activities will include: swim, water therapy, sports, creative movement classes (i.e. yoga) and other outdoor recreational activities.
Compass Rose Academy will be a center for community education. All children will have the option to participate in any or all of our academic or enrichment programs.
We will be located at the Market Shops of Sandestin.
