Believe; Excel, Achieve: Respect
Compass-Binghampton is small enough to become a “family” but diverse enough to introduce students to various cultures worldwide. Compass-Binghampton is committed to developing the whole child through rigorous academic instruction and social-emotional development to prepare students for life in high school and beyond. We believe that through positive relationships and academic personalization, we can provide students with an environment that prepares them for the world of tomorrow. We hold the bar high for our students because we know they can and will achieve it. We believe our responsibility is to support students in becoming the best version of themselves inside and outside the classroom.

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.
