Representatives from Baltimore's public schools, private schools, and Johns Hopkins University's Center for Talented Youth created a comprehensive directory called the Compass Directory to connect academically talented children, especially from low-income families, with local academic enrichment resources. The directory launched in September and lists organizations like chess clubs, debate leagues, and college prep programs that could help talented students excel. It aims to level the playing field of information for smart students in Baltimore and prevent them from dumbing themselves down due to lack of awareness of opportunities.
