Compass Classes Begin in 2 Weeks- There is Still Time!

Summer is almost over! Do you have your homeschooling year figured out? Compass classes begin in just two weeks on Wednesday, September 7. Registrations are still being accepted

If you have some gaps in your curriculum, want your child to try an in-person, small group class or explore a new topic, try Compass this fall!
