Bronx Compass High School

Welcome To

Bronx COmpass High School

Bronx Compass Family,

You matter.

Your life matters, your feelings matter, your voice matters, your future matters, your civil rights matter.

We're here for you, you're here for each other and we need to remember this now, more than ever.

Come together, share your feelings, they are valid, find your support from others, be there for those at Bronx Compass who need you now.

We are a community.

These are painful and strange times that we are living through. We must support each other moving forward and find strength, love and compassion to bring about change, together.

Myself and the faculty of Bronx Compass will always be there for you when you need us. We're just an email, phone call, text or Google Meet, away.

Respectfully,

Brett Roer

Principal of the Toughest Students, Families and Staff in NYC

Principal’s Spring 2020 Message During Remote Learning:

Bronx Compass Students, Families and Faculty,

Throughout Remote Learning, I constantly remind myself of a quote to stay motivated and focused throughout the Spring of 2020:

“Tough times never last, but tough people always do.”

Remote Learning has been a challenging time for the Bronx Compass community, but it is always important to remember that we are #CompassStrong! Being #CompassStrong means being strong enough to help others, strong enough to know when you need help and asking for it.

You can lift someone up today and need someone to lift you up tomorrow, both are signs of strength and we are all in this together.

YOU - the students, the families and the staff members of Bronx Compass - have been an inspiration in how you continue to try your best to make Remote Learning meaningful and enjoyable.

We are learning together how to make the best of Remote Learning, and your feedback continues to inspire us to rethink education. THANK YOU.

YOU exemplify what makes The Bronx so special; the harder the challenge, the harder we fight together to make sure our loved ones are safe and well. Relationships have always been what makes Bronx Compass special. Thank you for always checking in on each other and supporting one another during Remote Learning.

We all miss one another and we are all wiser in knowing what an honor and meaningful experience it is to come together for academic, social and emotional support as not just a learning community, but as a family.

When it is safe, we will all come back together to Bronx Compass High School, a community that will no doubt be changed by the past few months, but one thing will NEVER change: the Bronx Compass community is here to support you.

Please do not hesitate to reach out at any time with questions, concerns, or requests of support. We will always make all efforts to provide you with information and support as soon as possible.

Finish the Spring 2020 Semester by trying your absolute best, we will get through this - TOGETHER!

REMEMBER - “Tough times never last, but tough people always do.”

Please be safe and take care of yourselves and your families. I appreciate each and every one of you.

Respectfully,

Brett Roer

Our dragons soar!

Home of the Fearless Dragons

There are so many things that make our Bronx Compass High School Community great. We are a diverse group of individuals who come together to support, learn and grow with each other. With almost 20 different after school clubs, including dance, journalism, video game club and chess, there's something for everyone. In our 2018/19 school year, our dragons went on over 30 cultural, educational, recreational, community service and post-secondary trips to places including Washington D.C., several Broadway shows (Hello Hamilton!) and Pineridge Dude Ranch. Pair all this with our focus on academics and administering to the whole student, Bronx Compass is the place to be!

Stick around, explore a little and watch us spread our wings.

Bronx Compass...Got GRIT!
