De nition of Learning
Learning is a transformative, re ective process of building understanding, empowering learners to think deeply, innovate, collaborate, and act with purpose.
What impact will you choose to make?
The Compass of Impact
The Compass of Impact is a tool to transform curiosity into purpose, challenges into growth, and knowledge into action. It translates the school's strategic direction into something each of us can act on, no matter our role.
Grounded in the AISC Core and centered on the Vision for an AISC Learner, the Compass shows how individual contributions connect to a shared schoolwide direction. Both compasses share the same inner ring: the six learner attributes we model and develop in our students. Strategic priorities for the current cycle are marked with stars and may shift over time as needs evolve.
How to Use the Compass of Impact
The Compass of Impact is a practical tool. Whether you are a student, a teacher, a staff member, a parent, an alum, or a partner, it helps you connect your contributions to the school's vision and priorities.

The Teaching & Learning Compass is anchored in Transformative Learning and maps how learning happens across four dimensions: curriculum, learning design, access and support systems, and experiences beyond the classroom. If you directly shape what students learn and how they learn it, this is your compass.
The AISC Experience Compass is anchored in Transformative Community Experiences and maps how community life at AISC is shaped across four dimensions: community life, local and global impact, operational excellence and stewardship, and campus care and services. If you shape how people experience AISC—as a teacher, staff member, learner, parent, alum, or partner—this is your compass.
YOUR TURN! Pick an attribute. Choose an area of impact. Name your contribution. For Example: For Example:
As a [attribute], in [area of impact], I will [action].
As a Change Maker, in Experiential Learning, I will design a service project where students partner with local organizations to solve real community challenges.
As an Effective Collaborator, in Administrative Support, I will hold monthly cross-division check-ins to align solutions, and build a consistent one-school approach.
