COMPASS Project

"Navigate Student Success using the COMPASS"

"COMPASS Projects" are an opportunity for students to take the COMPASS assessment and learn about what to expect when attending college.

During the day students will have the chance to participate in a "College 101" presentation, a campus tour, enjoy a pizza lunch, and have fun along the way!

COMPASS results can be utilized in multiple ways.

• As a benchmarking tool to gauge students' academic achievement.

• To forecast college readiness.

• To guide and evaluate readiness for Post Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO), Dual Enrollment, Contracted Courses, or entering a Career Academy while students are still in high school.
