Sequoia Union High School District

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ayg_8bNqKhWAanIfQ2DW_dAq0sA6LWiDbWrZWTKqB3Q/edit?usp=sharingThe Sequoia Union High School District Compass Program is an 17-day transition-to-success program for incoming ninth-grade students. The main emphasis of Compass is to provide incoming 9th grade students with the opportunity to acclimate to their new high school environment through both academic and social interaction activities.

 

Compass students are pre-selected based on middle school recommendation, reading and math test scores. This program is not open to all incoming 9th grade students. Students who qualify will be notified by their assigned high school. Students will receive up to five elective credits toward high school graduation.

 

Compass will be held, in-person, at each of the following sites: Carlmont, Menlo-Atherton, Sequoia, TIDE Academy and Woodside.
