Ready Set Give School Fundraiser
The game is on the line and we need your help to rally the team to victory. World Compass Academy is a team dedicated to preparing students to Go Anywhere, Do Anything. The team displays expert skills in academics, while never forgetting the importance of character development on and off the field. The staff on the sideline is laser focused on bringing these kids to victory. The best teams have the best coaches. But everyone knows, the most important man on the field is actually the one in the stands - the 12th man... cheering the team to victory, giving them the strength and courage to fight on, ensuring the team has all the resources they need to succeed. That's YOU. And we're seeking your support. Will you help us get the ball across the goal line?

READ Testing Dates Change
The date by which we are required to submit the calendar is before testing windows are published. We take our best guess based on the current year's days, but sometimes the testing dates shift. On our current calendar, December 10 and May 6 are very close to the end of the testing window. As a result, we are moving the testing days to December 3 and April 29.
