Science of Reading Assessments
Most literacy assessments can show that a student struggled to understand a text. Compass Literacy helps educators uncover what is driving that breakdown, from vocabulary and language demands to how students connect ideas, interpret meaning, and make sense of complex texts.

Why Compass Literacy?
Help us build a new kind of HQIA for comprehension designed to generate evidence that educators can use alongside their high-quality instructional materials to support student learning.
Actionable Evidence
Gain insights on root causes of student comprehension gaps designed to inform instructional planning, not simply measure performance.
Aligned to HQIM
Connect assessment information directly to the curriculum and materials teachers already use.
Built With Educators
Shape the future of language comprehension assessment through real-world feedback and implementation.
Language Comprehension Assessment
The Compass Literacy Vision
In less than a class period, Compass Literacy helps educators learn not just whether a student understands text, but why they struggle and where to go next. Every insight takes you directly back to your ELA HQIM, so teachers spend less time interpreting results and more time acting on them.
Language comprehension is one piece of a complete literacy picture. Our language comprehension assessment is built to fit inside a well-rounded assessment strategy, which includes HQIA for foundational skills and skilled reading.
