As a teacher, Ms LeDuff sought to create a classroom full of joy and curiosity while getting to know her students deeply as both learners and as people. Ms LeDuff received her bachelor’s degree in History at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and her master’s degree in Educational Leadership from the High Tech High Graduate School of Education. In 2019, she was awarded the California League of Middle Schools Educator of the Year. In her role at Compass, Ms LeDuff seeks to help students and staff see our school as a second home by building a strong community.

It is through intentional decisions about how we experience learning that we engage and become inspired to be all that we can be”.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><em>Ms. Marcia can be reached at mfulton@compassacademy.org</em></p> </div> </div></div></div></div><div class="sqs-block horizontalrule-block sqs-block-horizontalrule" data-block-type="47" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1706290802517_56566"><div class="sqs-block-content"><hr /></div></div><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1562700573382_169560"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>Office team</strong></h2> </div> </div></div><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-2 span-2"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image" data-block-type="5" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1532366957749_630495"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-inline combination-animation-none individual-animation-none individual-text-animation-none " data-test="image-block-inline-outer-wrapper" > <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " style="max-width:320px;" > <div class="image-block-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="sqs-image-shape-container-element has-aspect-ratio " style=" position: relative; padding-bottom:125%; overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black); " > <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG" data-image-dimensions="320x400" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG" width="320" height="400" alt="" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 16.666666666666664vw, 16.666666666666664vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover; width: 100%; height: 100%; object-position: 50% 50%" onload="this.classList.add("loaded")" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/3ae864a5-0102-4490-866f-6fd481d60816/00206.JPG?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> </div> </div> <figcaption class="image-caption-wrapper"> <div class="image-caption"><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>Karla Martinez, Office Manager</strong></p></div> </figcaption> </figure> </div> </div></div></div><div class="col sqs-col-10 span-10"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1532366957749_677591"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Karla was born in Ciudad Juarez Chihuahua and moved to Denver when she was only a year and a half and has since been raised in Denver.

Her favorite grade/level is middle school. She knows that might make her sound crazy but she really loves where they're at and the amazing growth that can happen in these three years. She really feels fortunate to be able to get students excited about reading and writing. She knows not every kid will love ElA but she hopes that her passion for English will be contagious and hook them. Outside of school she loves to mountain bike, paddle board, hike, pretty much anything outside. She also is a big journaler, and loves to draw/paint and be creative. She was bitten last summer by the travel bug and was able to spend 8 magical days in Spain. This summer she is heading to the Dominican Republic and can't wait to plan my next adventure.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><em>Ms. Candie can be reached at cdunbar@compassacademy.org</em></p> </div> </div></div></div></div><div class="sqs-block horizontalrule-block sqs-block-horizontalrule" data-block-type="47" id="block-yui_3_17_2_3_1501450395951_1386725"><div class="sqs-block-content"><hr /></div></div><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-2 span-2"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image" data-block-type="5" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1723950974397_601158"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-inline combination-animation-none individual-animation-none individual-text-animation-none " data-test="image-block-inline-outer-wrapper" > <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " style="max-width:172px;" > <div class="image-block-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="sqs-image-shape-container-element has-aspect-ratio " style=" position: relative; padding-bottom:132.55813598632812%; overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black); " > <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG" data-image-dimensions="172x228" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG" width="172" height="228" alt="" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 16.666666666666664vw, 16.666666666666664vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover; width: 100%; height: 100%; object-position: 50% 50%" onload="this.classList.add("loaded")" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/540f53bce4b06a1987994d76/6396c84c-fe36-42f0-9f21-57a4f361a6c7/Marquardt_Quintin.JPG?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> </div> </div> <figcaption class="image-caption-wrapper"> <div class="image-caption"><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>Quintin Marquardt, 8th Grade Social Studies</strong></p></div> </figcaption> </figure> </div> </div></div></div><div class="col sqs-col-10 span-10"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-block-type="2" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1723950974397_596403"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Quintin is the 8th grade social studies teacher here at Compass!

Daniel is excited to be continuing his passion for service at City Year where prioritizing educational equity and investing in young people is so vital to the organization. </p> </div> </div></div></div></div><div class="sqs-block horizontalrule-block sqs-block-horizontalrule" data-block-type="47" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1724344990107_336363"><div class="sqs-block-content"><hr /></div></div></div></div></div> </div> </main> <div id="preFooter"> <div class="pre-footer-inner"> <div class="sqs-layout sqs-grid-12 columns-12" data-layout-label="Pre-Footer Content" data-type="block-field" data-updated-on="1699902918295" id="preFooterBlocks"><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-12 span-12"><div class="sqs-block socialaccountlinks-v2-block sqs-block-socialaccountlinks-v2" data-block-type="54" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1406660821033_8373"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-svg-icon--outer social-icon-alignment-center social-icons-color-white social-icons-size-large social-icons-shape-circle social-icons-style-knockout" > <style> #block-yui_3_17_2_1_1406660821033_8373 .social-icons-style-border .sqs-svg-icon--wrapper { box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px inset; border: none; } </style> <nav class="sqs-svg-icon--list"> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/compassacademydenver/" target="_blank" class="sqs-svg-icon--wrapper facebook" aria-label="Compass Academy"> <div> <svg class="sqs-svg-icon--social" viewBox="0 0 64 64"> <use class="sqs-use--icon" xlink:href="#facebook-icon"></use> <use class="sqs-use--mask" xlink:href="#facebook-mask"></use> </svg> </div> </a> </nav> </div> </div></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> <footer id="footer" role="contentinfo"> <div class="footer-inner"> <div class="nav-wrapper back-to-top-nav"><nav><div class="back-to-top"><a href="#header">Back to Top</a></div></nav></div> <div id="siteInfo"><span class="site-address">Compass Academy, 2285 South Federal Boulevard, Denver, CO, 80219, United States</span><span rel="tel" class="site-phone">720-424-0096</span><a href="mailto:information@compassacademy.org" class="site-email"><span>information@compassacademy.org</span></a></div> <div class="sqs-layout sqs-grid-12 columns-12" data-layout-label="Footer Content" data-type="block-field" data-updated-on="1532725106518" id="footerBlocks"><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-12 span-12"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-block-type="2" id="block-713fe491a2c303b33937"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="text-align-center"><a href="/compass-academy-welcome">Compass Academy</a></p> </div> </div></div></div></div></div> </div> </footer> </div> <script src="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/ta/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1053/scripts/site-bundle.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script data-sqs-type="imageloader-bootstrapper">if(window.ImageLoader) window.ImageLoader.bootstrap({}, document);</script><script>Squarespace.afterBodyLoad(Y);</script><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" style="display:none" data-usage="social-icons-svg"><symbol id="facebook-icon" viewBox="0 0 64 64"><path d="M34.1,47V33.3h4.6l0.7-5.3h-5.3v-3.4c0-1.5,0.4-2.6,2.6-2.6l2.8,0v-4.8c-0.5-0.1-2.2-0.2-4.1-0.2 c-4.1,0-6.9,2.5-6.9,7V28H24v5.3h4.6V47H34.1z"/></symbol><symbol id="facebook-mask" viewBox="0 0 64 64"><path d="M0,0v64h64V0H0z M39.6,22l-2.8,0c-2.2,0-2.6,1.1-2.6,2.6V28h5.3l-0.7,5.3h-4.6V47h-5.5V33.3H24V28h4.6V24 c0-4.6,2.8-7,6.9-7c2,0,3.6,0.1,4.1,0.2V22z"/></symbol></svg> </body> </html>
