2018 Annual Report ANNUAL REPORT ACADEMIC YEAR 2018 URBAN COMPASS Guiding Youth Toward a Hopeful Future MISSION The mission of Urban Compass is to provide a safe, welcoming, and innovative environment that challenges our youth to envision and navigate a course for a rewarding future characterized by achievement, independent thought, and social responsibility through education, mentoring, and play. Urban Compass guides youth toward a hopeful future! URBAN COMPASS Guiding Youth Toward a Hopeful Future Dear Friends, It is with great pride that we present the Urban Compass Annual Report for the 2018 Academic Year. This has been an exciting year of growth and change for the organization, with the addition of new Interim Executive Directors (that's us), and nearly doubling our program enrollment with the implementation of two major initiatives: a second program site in Pico- Union and a middle school program in Watts. Throughout this expansion period, our core mission has remained intact, "we guide youth toward a hopeful future!" With a combined service to Urban Compass spanning two decades and professional backgrounds in finance and education, we are well-suited to lead the organization through this critical period of development. Michelle Alfonso, a CPA by trade, will focus on strategic and financial planning, while Kathy Walton will be evaluating the programming and staffing models to ensure the most effective use of our limited resources. Our goal is to develop the foundation and infrastructure necessary to support Urban Compass's continued growth trajectory. We are grateful for the financial and in-kind contributions from our donors, community partners and dedicated volunteers. Thank you for your on- going support of UC families. With deepest appreciation, Michelle Alfonso Kathy Walton Interim Executive Director, Finance Interim Executive Director, Programming ORGANIZATION HISTORY Established in 2004, Urban Compass (“UC”) was designed to address the negative outcomes and academic challenges experienced by children in Watts and South Los Angeles. UC created a continuum of academic, enrichment and support services that keeps children out of gangs and on a path to college, giving children every opportunity to succeed. The long-term support model provided by Urban Compass gives youth the tools to navigate their own future, for a lifetime of success. For fourteen years, the core of Urban Compass’s model has been an after-school academic and social enrichment program that started by serving children in Kindergarten through 5th grade at 112th Street Elementary School. A crucial reason for our success is a model built on community partners, including a volunteer workforce of over 400 high school and college volunteers, who play a vital role in creating our college- going culture and inspiring our kids dream of high school graduation and college success. Despite the long history of abandonment by social service providers in Watts, Urban Compass gained traction through a deep and relentless commitment to the needs of the community. Building on our success in Watts, Urban Compass recently expanded to a second service location at St. Thomas the Apostle Elementary School in Pico-Union. Launched in Fall 2017, this intensely underserved community is well-suited for the Urban Compass model, which greatly benefits from the support of high school volunteers from Loyola High School and Bishop Conaty High School, located a few blocks from St. Thomas. We have quickly gained the trust of the children and families and look forward to building on our work as a connector and collaborator to continue bringing resources to this community. We are proud to announce our newest program, Urban Compass College & Career Pathways for middle school students in Watts, made possible by a generous grant from Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, Downey. Launching in Summer 2018, our students meet two Saturdays per month to participate in sessions at Verbum Dei High School which focus on leadership, life skills, college planning, and career exploration. There are no other programs of this type currently available for middle school students across schools, we want to be first to reach out and support these students in a caring and impactful way. PROGRAM GROWTH In the last two years, Urban Compass has experienced tremendous growth, nearly doubling 150 enrollment with the addition of two new programs: 125 100 Pico-Union After School Program (Fall 2017) 75 UC College & Career Pathways, # Students Middle School Program (Summer 2018) 50 25 An additional 60% growth is expected over the 0 next two years, reaching maximum capacity of AY15 AY16 AY17 AY18 AY19 AY20 AY21 150 in 2021.

Last year, Devin struggled with finding his place at Urban Compass due to negative community influences. However, with the start of the new school year, Devin bounced back, committed himself to success, and quickly became a leader in his class and a role model for his classmates. He looks forward to coming to program everyday, and always makes sure his younger brother, De’Onta, is following the rules and has a smile on his face. Daniel, Kindergarten Student In the beginning of the school year, Daniel struggled to stay awake during our program. He was non-verbal with staff and other students, but he slowly opened up. Program Manager, Brittany Burnett recalls, "I can remember the first day I heard him say my name. I was shocked and excited!” Daniel received several monthly Perfect Attendance awards from Urban Compass, and would proudly race to his mom after program to hand her his certificate and prize. His first report card grades also improved over the course of the year, starting from 1's and 2's, Daniel progressed with his final report card on grade-level with 3's. GUIDING YOUTH TOWARD A HOPEFUL FUTURE ACADEMIC OUTCOMES Urban Compass embraces a data-driven approach to all aspects of organizational decision-making.

We began to reflect on my seven years as provincial, which come to a close this summer. I paused for a moment, searching for the right words. And then I found them. “The bottom line is: God is so good.” That has been the truth of these past seven years. Despite some significant challenges, I have to say God has been incredibly good to me and good to us. Or, using the imagery of St. Ignatius during the Fourth Week of the Spiritual Exercises, God has been laboring for us. As I look through the pages of this magazine, it is easy for me to see God laboring in my life and in the life of the province. I see the truth in that statement simply by viewing our cover photo. The cover shows a group of essential workers—Jesuits and lay staff—who brought comfort and healing to our retired and infirm Jesuits during a recent Covid outbreak when we lost eight of our brothers.

  • Annual Report 2019-2020
    Verbum Dei High School The Jesuit Work Study College Prep in Los Angeles Annual Report 2019-2020 “Class of 2020, writing their own script” A Word from our President “Something old, something new; something borrowed, something blue” is the ditty that describes a bride’s traditional accoutrement. If you drop “borrowed/blue,” you catch something of the “magic” of Verbum Dei. The Jesuits assumed responsibility for Verbum Dei in 2000 at the request of then-Archbishop, Cardinal Roger Mahony. Jesuits were “new” to Verbum but the school was an “old” and trusted member of the Watts community. The newly arrived Jesuits brought to Verbum Dei a 500 year old tradition and a reputation as “the school masters of Europe” that traces back to the sixteenth century. A shorthand way to talk about the Jesuit tradition is education for information and transformation. Jesuit education is about students acquiring the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in college and live satisfying lives, while contributing to the betterment of society. Jesuit education is not just about students—it is about them--and about what they will do with that education for others. Our current experience with the pandemic, the economic collapse, the social unrest and the failure of leadership can leave no doubt about the nation’s need for persons who will look beyond the concerns of any individual or group to promote the common good of all. In Jesuit education, “information” is not just facts, figures and formulas, but also self-knowledge that generates confidence and Rev. Stephen A. Privett, S.J.

  • Annual Report 2010-2011
    The Jesuit Work Study College Prep in Los Angeles Annual Report 2010-2011 Verbum Dei Seniors attend “The California Jesuit Excellence Tour.” A Word from our President Dear Friends, Bruce Juell, corporate chief executive, investment broker, consultant, venture capitalist, and friend of the Verb wrote a book a few years ago entitled The Retirement Activities Guide, Things To Do When Golf and Grandkids Aren’t Enough. An early chapter is named “First Things First” in which Bruce says you can’t find Fulfillment in retirement unless you “make sure that your Financial house is in as good a shape as it can be, that you are tend- ing to your health and Fitness, that your relationships with your Family and Friends are what they should be.” Bruce’s advice works well for those in retirement, I’m sure, but also for all of us engaged in making Verbum Dei be the best place for the young men who come to us for a Catholic, Jesuit college-prep education – first things first. As we celebrate our 50th year as a school and our tenth as a Cristo Rey school with the corporate work-study program, it is your generosity that is guaranteeing that our financial house is in order. The health and fitness of our academic program through the Cristo Rey Educational Enrichment Initiative and our partnership with the LMU School of Education has never been better. Under the leadership of our principal, our Dean of Student and Family Support, and our director of Corporate Work-Study and others we have initiated a number of bet- ter ways to communicate with our students’ families and have begun to offer various opportunities for parents/ guardians to meet each other and work together for the good of their sons; already a “family,” we are becoming friends.
