Meet the Panthers.
Reach New Heights & Set New Records!
Compass-Berclair is a supportive, joyful, and hopeful school tucked away off Summer Ave. We strive to make our school like a family, and all scholars are excited to enter it each day! As we begin the 2024-2025 school year, we want to build upon our Panther PAWS: Practicing Kindness, Acting Responsibly, Working Hard, and Serving Others.
With the TVASS 5 designation for the past two years, we look forward to seeing our scholars grow academically and learn about who they are and who they want to be. We are excited to set new records this year. Go Panthers!

Curriculum
Our goal is to equip students with the tools they need for success in college, and beyond. As a charter school, we have the freedom to select a curriculum that allows us to do just that. For grades K-5, we work with CKLA English, Ready Math, Inspire Science and Studies Weekly Social Studies. For grades 6-8, we offer Wit & Wisdom English, Ready Math, iScience and McGraw Hill Social Studies. All grades participate in Spark P.E. and Flex Art.
Extracurricular
We believe a world-class education is more than just academics. That is why we make sure extracurricular activities are available to all of our students. As of now, we offer Music, Physical Education and Scholar Leadership Guidance for every child K-8. We also partner with Soccer Ole who facilitates our soccer program for any child interested.
Extended Hours
At this time, we do not offer before or after school care due to lack of interest.

Academics
Passion for Teaching
Compass teachers know their content backwards and forwards 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 will help them to develop trusting, positive relationships with their students and colleagues.
Service Learning
In the Community
Service-learning projects provide students with opportunities to apply newly learned knowledge and skills in real-world contexts, further cementing their understanding and giving their academic learning relevant purposes. Service learning serves as the intersection of our academic excellence and values-based character education pillars—bringing content, concepts, and skills gleaned from both to life through hands-on, tangible experiences.
