HOW IT WORKS

Four steps to clarity

A monitor you can come back to month after month.

STEP 01

Quick setup, built for your child

Share a few details. We build a check-in matched to your child — personal, not generic.

STEP 02
Mrs. Compass

A calm, guided assessment

Scan the code, hand them the phone, stay close by. Miss Pat leads them through activities — about 15 minutes.

STEP 03

Instant results, with a clear next step

Open your dashboard. See where they stand — and the skills to grow next.

STEP 04

A daily plan, and growth you can see

A daily plan built around results, focused on the skills that matter most. Come back and monitor their growth.

Why Reading Compass

What makes Reading Compass different.

Built to give parents what most don't have access to — clear answers, real guidance, and a path forward.

Built for parents, not schools

Other reading assessments are built for teachers, schools, or clinics. Reading Compass is built for parents — to use at home, on your timeline, in your living room.

Monthly, not yearly

Most reading tools test your child once — at signup, or once a year. Reading Compass is built for monthly check-ins, so you see growth as it happens.

A daily plan tied to your child

Not a score and a worksheet. A short daily plan focused on the skills your child is ready to grow next.

More than an assessment — a path forward

We don't just tell you where your child stands. We tell you what to do next — at home, with their teacher, or at school.

Designed for ages 3 and 4

Most reading tools start at kindergarten. Reading Compass is built for ages 3 and 4 — when small gaps stay small.

Listen to your child's responses

Hear recordings of your child's actual responses — real evidence, not just a score. Listen for yourself.

Your child's reading, simplified.

No more wondering. See exactly where your child stands, what to focus on, and how they're growing — month after month.
