Compass Charter School is a safe and nurturing educational environment that honors the individuality of each learner. By engaging in a process of inquiry, our graduates will be equipped with the necessary skills to lead fulfilling personal and professional lives, including a developed sense of self, the ability to think in innovative and flexible ways, and the inspiration to make a positive impact on their community.
DESCRIPTIONOF THE SCHOOL
Compass Charter School is an inquiry-based, progressive elementary school that opened in the fall of 2014 in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. We are committed to providing an experiential and democratic elementary experience to all children, with intentional access for children who typically do not get access to progressive education (children with special needs, children from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and English language learners).
Our Integrated Curriculum centers sustainability in all forms: environmental, racial, and economic justice. Our staff works interdependently in collaborative teams and engages in professional inquiry (instructional coaching, reflection, restorative and trauma informed practices). Compass enrolls approximately 330 students in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade.
As a member of the school’s Instructional Leadership Team, the Assistant Principal works as a transformational leader, supporting an environment of equity, curiosity, inclusion, and sustainability. The Assistant Principal is a key position who works with the Executive Leadership Team to supervise all instructional and student support staff. The Assistant Principal is responsible for carrying out Compass’ vision, mission, and collective commitments.
This includes an unwavering commitment to equitable outcomes for all students, more specifically, equitable academic outcomes for children with special needs, children from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and English language learners. This is a 12 month position.
