Community

World Compass Academy doesn’t just talk about school being a safe, supportive environment; we create this vision.

Faculty and Staff
  • A positive school culture starts with our Faculty and Staff. We hire teachers who love their job! We want people who roll out of bed excited to come to work. We want individuals committed to exemplifying a culture of respect, love, and compassion in their interactions with students, parents, and coworkers.
  • Modeling the behavior we want from our students is a key component of creating a strong community.
 
Second Step
Second Step is a social-emotional learning curriculum, which directly teaches skills that help students academically and in relationships. 
  • Elementary
Students in K-5 learn to make friends, manage their emotions, solve problems, and deal with peer pressure through catchy songs, fun games, and other engaging activities that support the development of social-emotional skills.  Direct instruction takes between 20-40 minutes weekly.
 
  • Middle School
Lessons are delivered in weekly homeroom class, where there is an emphasis on building connections and a sense of belonging.  Lessons cover topics such as conflict and goal setting.
 
A Culture of Kindness
We strive to cultivate an attitude of kindness and service.  Our middle school has a kindness committee, who promotes kindness around the school and plans our annual day of kindness.  Each spring, our middle school participates in a spring service day with service projects at the school and around the community.
 
Community Building Events
Join us for Hispanic Heritage Month, Chinese New Year, and Mardi Gras.  Come see our winter holidays around the world celebration or attend the fall and spring PTO family events.  When we celebrate together, we form relationships and strengthen our community.
