High School (10th - 12th)

Welcome to our High School Back to School Hub! 

 

As a reminder, our High School programs include all 10th, 11th and 12th grade students.  Whether you are a new or returning family, please read ALL of the back to learning information provided.

 

Note: Compass High School does not require registration for classes like other high schools. Your child has been enrolled in their classes, and students will create their schedules the first week of school. 


High School Back to Learning CHECKLIST

 

  • Visit Infinite Campus (IC) & Pay Fees - Log into Infinite Campus (IC). Check your contact information, emergency contacts and fees. (Please note: You can't pay fees until August 2nd, as that is the day Jeffco will open the portal for families.) For a step-by-step guide to navigating IC, click HERE. (This is very important, as we communicate with you using the contact information in IC!)
  • Complete the 2023-24 Blanket Permission Form - As a reminder, the annual blanket permission form helps expedite planning and execution of day trips, going outs planned by students and Self Expressions. ALL families 1st - 12th grade must complete this form, and choose their permission preferences no later than August 20, 2023. 
  • Photo Opt OUT Form - You only need to complete our Compass Photo Opt Out Form 2023-24 if you DO NOT want your child in any photographs at school. Please complete it by August 20, 2023. If you give permission for them to be in photos to represent our school, no action is required. 
  • Order Hot Lunch for August & September - Hot Lunch begins August 28th. Order forms will open by August 11th, and will be due August 20, 2023. Click on Hot Lunch in the top right corner of our website to place your orders after August 11th. Please plan to pack lunch until Aug 28th. (Each month throughout the school year, hot lunch order forms will be open on the 1st and due on the 10th (deadlines are strict so mark your calendars!)
  • Review Hours of Operation - During the school year, High School may arrive at 7:30 AM and school begins promptly at 7:45 AM. School ends at 2:45 PM, and all students must be picked up no later than 3:00 PM. You can always double check these times in our Hours of Operation link in Contact Us. (bookmark this page!)
  • Review Attendance & Tardy forms - If your student is absent or tardy, please complete the Attendance Form on our homepage or call with an explanation.
  • Calendar - Check the school calendar on our website regularly! (Please note, our charter school calendar is not always exactly the same as Jeffco’s calendar, so always cross reference.)
  • Family & Student Handbook - All parents must read and acknowledge the parent handbook each year. The handbook includes policies for attendance, hours, enrollment, fees, conferences, student support, trips, safety and more! It's a great place to look if you have questions throughout the school year. The 2023-24 handbook is pending board approval but you may review the 2022-23 Handbook for now.
  • Photo Opt OUT Form - You only need to complete our Compass Photo Opt Out Form 2023-24 if you DO NOT want your child in any photographs at school. Please complete it by August 18, 2023. If you give permission for them to be in photos to represent our school, no action is required. 
  • Immunizations - Each year, every student must submit a copy of their Immunization records (or exemption documents). Please make sure our clinic aides have the most current immunization record at the beginning of each school year. It's always best to pull a fresh immunization record and give it to our clinic aides, just to be sure we have everything on record! (Submit to the clinic aides: Golden Campus: Serra Draper-Peckham at [email protected]; Wheat Ridge Campus: Lisa Krieg at [email protected])
  • Athletics Physical - If your child plans to participate in athletics, they also need a sports physical on record prior to their team's first practice.
  • Med Forms (if applicable) -
