Compass Classroom

Compass Classroom delivers engaging Christian classical education through pre-recorded video courses taught by expert instructors like Dave Raymond for history and Dwane Thomas for Latin, making rigorous subjects genuinely interesting rather than tedious—a game-changer for families who want academically strong content from a biblical worldview without the burden of parent-led teaching. The video-based format works especially well for visual and auditory learners in middle and high school who benefit from professional instruction that flows naturally and speaks directly to students learning at home. The curriculum covers history, science, Latin, vocabulary, logic, economics, literature, and worldview through the Premium Membership giving families access to 50+ courses with downloadable PDF materials or separately purchased printed workbooks. Designed for grades 6-12, with some courses like Visual Latin and WordUp! suitable for upper elementary students around age 10, the self-paced courses include syllabi, assignments, quizzes, and answer keys requiring minimal parent prep beyond review and grading. The classical approach emphasizes critical thinking, literature, and language skills within a non-denominational Protestant framework, making it popular with families teaching multiple children who can all access courses simultaneously under one subscription. Parents appreciate the excellent teaching quality, biblical integration, and flexibility to use courses as complete year-long curricula or targeted supplements for specific subjects, though the program doesn't cover math and requires families to curate their own course lineup rather than providing pre-packaged grade-level boxes. The screen-based format means significant video time, which some families embrace for independent learning while others prefer more hands-on variety. Consider the free trial to sample course quality and determine if the engaging teaching style and depth of Christian worldview integration align with your educational goals.
