Over the past 6 weeks, we set a goal of raising $7,500 for the John J. Lydon Help Fund. When the fundraiser ended last week, we had raised a whopping $16,500!
Thank you to everyone who donated; these funds can assist approximately 132 families experiencing a financial crisis.
This week, COMPASS School students had the opportunity to celebrate with Principal Beth Labbe about her upcoming retirement at the end of this school year.
The Culinary Arts students prepared a wonderful brunch for students and staff to celebrate this bittersweet occasion!
Happy Retirement Principal Labbe, well deserved. 😁

As Pride Month begins, we would like to highlight the work that the EAST Project engages in year-round to combat the some of the vulnerabilities that youth who identify with the LGBTQ community face. These youth are at a much higher risk of being exploited; therefore, the EAST Project partners with community agencies such as The Center for Hope and Healing Inc. to address each youth's needs for safety, security, and healing.
At COMPASS, we recognize the importance of understanding, learning from, and supporting youth and families and the identities they have. In addition to raising awareness during each heritage month, we are going to continue highlighting the ways in which we support and uplift diverse communities throughout the whole year.
