Thousand Oaks, CA – Compass Charter Schools (CCS), a popular WASC-accredited charter school in California, announced its new schedule and academic offerings for elementary, middle school and high school scholars for the upcoming 2017-18 school year.
CCS will launch a new partnership with a robust online curriculum provider, StrongMind, for online middle and high school scholars. It is an award winning program that was intentionally developed to create content, formats and online classrooms that appeal to digital natives. The interactive, multimedia course elements are designed to bring key concepts to life and help scholars master critical skills. StrongMind’s course offerings can be found on our website. CCS staff will finalize our course catalogs by Monday, March 27.
For online elementary scholars, CCS will offer more curriculum options for scholars and families to choose from. Scholars will have the opportunity to continue with the current K-12 option, or select from a few new options that will be finalized by CCS staff by Monday, March 27.
“We strive to offer our scholars the most flexible and advanced curriculum options to meet their individual needs,” said Joel Manwarren, Director of Academic Affairs. “Each scholar deserves the
opportunity to choose the best educational path for their personal advancement, and that’s why we are expanding our options for all our scholars.”
CCS opened the enrollment process for current scholars today, March 1, and those who choose to reenroll by Friday, March 17 will receive a limited-edition ‘Proud Scholar’ t-shirt. All scholars who choose to re-enroll by Friday, April 14 will have access to their subscription package over the summer, and Options scholars will be able to keep their materials. Enrollment for new scholars opens on Monday, March 20.
“We want our scholars and their families to feel supported during their educational journey with Compass Charter Schools,” shared J.J. Lewis, President & CEO. “Our goal is to continue to enhance the services and support we offer our scholars and their families. These new enhancements are just the start of our efforts to ensure we are meeting the unique needs of the scholars we serve throughout California.”
The first day of school will be Tuesday, September 5, and Compass Charter Schools will operate on a single track for the 2017-18 academic year to better meet scholars’ educational needs.
