Mission: Compass Rose Academy is a Christian residential treatment center that uses emotion-focused and experiential interventions to build in deeper and longer-lasting changes at the character level.

Vision: To offer hope and transformation through Christ to children and families.

Core Values: Connection. Individuation. Integration. Agency.

Compass Rose Academy offers innovative and rigorous academic opportunities for students. Our academic model provides integration of our clinical, residential & academic services for students. All CRA academic staff are trained in our model of care and work closely with our program as a whole in order to provide the best environment for our students. Our academic services include a partnership with Edgenuity Virtual Academy, an online Christian curriculum in which students can work towards earning credits towards their high school diploma. Edgenuity Virtual Academy is nationally accredited through Cognia and is fully recognized by high schools and colleges across the country. Our programming also offers a variety of other components which include:

• Project-Based Learning
• Daily devotions
• Spiritual Life
• Mindfulness exercises
• Social-Emotional Learning
• In-person elective options
• Off-Campus field trips

Each student has an individualized academic plan specifically designed to move that student toward meeting graduation requirements. Highly qualified teachers utilize a computer-based curriculum aligned to state and national standards. The computer-based curriculum allows students to recover missing credits as well as earn credits at an accelerated rate once proficiency is demonstrated. The curriculum is supplemented with enrichment activities such as general classroom discussions and off-campus field trips that reiterate core themes of healing, development, teamwork, compassion, and respect. The school is able to provide many levels of support from Special Education Services to Advanced Placement (AP) courses.

Each teacher stresses accountability for academic performance and personal behavior. With a low student-teacher ratio, strict behavior standards, a uniform policy, and mandatory study times, students have the opportunity to experience academic success, often for the first time. In the process, students learn important study skills that benefit them throughout their lives.

Students attend school Monday through Thursday with holiday breaks and an extended break in the summer. A year-round calendar provides a seamless curriculum for students who enroll or withdraw throughout the calendar year.

Expected Student Outcome Statements:

• Students actively seek out spiritual growth.
• Students are relational & respectful of others.
• Students are academically prepared for the next stage.

Academic Philosophy: Compass Rose Academy is a Christian academic program dedicated to providing a rigorous, relational, and student-centered academic experience for students.

Some of our Spiritual Life Activities include:

Bible Class – Each morning teachers walk students through different  portions of the biblical story. Students engage in learning about the Word through skits, videos,  reading and reflective writing. 

Sunday Morning Church Service – Each Sunday morning, the homes attend a church service at a local contemporary church in town. To learn about the church and even watch archived services from home, contact us.

Chapel – Team members and students alike gather weekly to engage in worship with song and teachings. These are led by our chaplain and we also welcome various guest speakers from the community and within our own team.

Optional Bible Study –  Weekly students are given the opportunity to gather as a campus and engage in a study of Scripture. This is a specific time to explore the deeper questions of faith. 

Additionally, our chaplain is always available to meet individually with students.
