We want every student to reach their full potential.
We implement rigorous, standards-based curricula to achieve academic excellence and ensure that every student realizes his/her fullest academic potential. However, we realize that every learner is unique and will come to us with individual learning styles and diverse learning needs.
That’s why Compass teachers know their content backward and forward and are passionate about preparing Memphis youth academically and in character for college and lifelong success. Our teachers enjoy and benefit from our intentionally small school settings, which help them develop trusting, positive relationships with their students and colleagues.


Small footprint, but big heart.
Today, Compass serves over 1,400 students across six campuses. Our schools are intentionally small to foster a family environment where teachers can focus on the individual child. We believe all children learn best in an environment where caring school leaders and staff develop positive relationships with families, students, and the community.
If you are looking for a school home to carry your child from kindergarten through twelfth grade that focuses on academic excellence and character development, Compass is the place for you.
