Our Philosophy: STEAM and Outdoor Learning
Guided by student curiosity…
We focus on whole-person development and believe STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) and outdoor learning inspire students to find their passion, explore their interests, and discover their full potential.
At Compass Outdoor, we are dedicated to STEAM education because it fosters critical thinking, enhances interdisciplinary competency, and cultivates the next generation of innovators. Our programs inspire students to become life-long learners, independent thinkers, and future leaders.
“At Compass, our vision is to educate a generation of students to think critically and imaginatively. We aim to nurture adaptability, creativity, and collaboration while encouraging inquisitive questioning, preparing them to thrive in an ever-changing, competitive, fast-paced, and globalized future.”
