Your Mission

Redefine what’s possible in public education. It is your primary responsibility to prepare all students with the academic and social skills necessary to persist and engage productively in their communities. However, learning does not stop in the classroom. At Compass Rose, we engage with the community regularly, asking families what they want to see from their graduates, listening to them, and taking their wishes seriously, and we use the information we learn to shape our schools.

Our goal is to always align our program with the desires of our community. To this end, you teach:

• A set of college-bound academic, culturally relevant skills that prepare students to be successful in college and the competitive world beyond.
• A set of social/emotional skills related to how we treat one another, work as a team and coach ourselves to work through the challenges we face.

Your Responsibilities

Planning

• Instructional materials align to state content standards and are appropriate for various learners, requiring intellectual preparation that considers potential misconceptions.
• Data assessments collect/analyze formal and informal data to monitor progress of all students.
• All lessons connect to students’ prior knowledge and experiences.
• Questions encourage all students to engage in complex, higher-order thinking.

Instructional Delivery

• Set academic expectations that challenge and create productive struggle.
• Persist with the lesson, ask probing questions, and address student mistakes until there is evidence that students demonstrate mastery of the objective.
• Convey accurate content knowledge in multiple contexts.
• Integrate learning…
