The Compass
The drafting compass depicted in our logo represents the dynamic experience youth have at New Haven. Graphically, the compass is in the shape of an “A,” an educational symbol of achievement. As a drafting tool, the compass is representative of New Haven’s innovative underpinning of trades skills as a motivational application of academic curriculum. Compasses measure distances, like the distance the youth will travel on their journey. As a navigation tool, a compass is synonymous with New Haven’s role as a guide that helps at-risk adolescents to find their way.
