Amazing things happen when young people are allowed to discover new passions, develop their interests, and thrive. Find Oliver's #CompassSuccessStory here: https://t.co/vIyspTGJn2

Between 3 - 5 PM today, friends and family are invited to try the escape room our teens have created. Prepare to be pleasantly puzzled 🤪 #Escapology #GoYourOwnWay

ICYMI, @sirkenrobinson recently supported his 16-year-old daughter in “dropping out” of high school in favour of self-designing and -directing her education. We empower teens in #Ottawa to customize their educations every day. https://t.co/pDi9n9GgJW

We've met three Ottawa-Vanier candidates at @CompassTeens : @Lyra_NDP , @OttVanierGreens , and @ndesrosiers . Thanks for listening and talking about issues important to our membership such as education, climate action, and the voting age. #ONpoli #OnElxn #OntarioVotes

Thank you @ndesrosiers for taking the time to talk about your platform and passions with @CompassTeens last week! #ONpoli #OnElxn #OntarioVotes

@mhbvickers @AndreMorson @CBCOttawa @MiriamKatawazi @OCDSB We wish there was public funding for our program, too! In the meantime, we don't turn away families because they can't afford our tuition. If that's a barrier to access, give us a shout.

We're excited to read about this Ottawa teacher creating a self-directed classroom in her school. Unlike the school mentioned, our focus as an institution is on supporting self-directed learning - in any discipline. https://t.co/XOcX7TLxqQ

An Ottawa teacher is part of the "unlearning" movement at John McCrae Secondary School, taking responsibility for their education by doing things such as recording podcasts and handcrafting compost bags: https://t.co/TFstmqdJxy via @MiriamKatawazi

@Lyra_NDP was the first candidate to respond, and our conversation with her on Tuesday covered everything from incentivizing cycling and electric cars, public education, post-secondary, healthcare, and more. Thank you for taking teens seriously.

Back in April, the @compassteens requested that all provincial candidates for our riding, #OttawaVanier, come by for a Q&A. While they can’t vote, our teens know how important the #ONElections are and stay engaged. We invited all parties' candidates.

[Compass Centre for Self-Directed Learning @CompassTeens]

We look forward to welcoming the @OntarioGreens today, and hope to meet the other parties' candidates soon. #ONElections #ONPolitics
