Compass is now Calibrate!
You may see both names during our update. Thanks for bearing with us.
Why Track Student Experience?
Student experience reveals where and for whom efforts are working in time to course-correct.

Schools invest in curriculum, professional learning, and student engagement initiatives. Are these efforts reaching all students as intended?
How Does Calibrate Work?
Calibrate enables education leaders to systematically gather student input on key learning conditions. Over multiple surveys, leaders track how student experience is changing in order to recognize impact and prioritize additional support. Educators can choose to engage in 2–5 rapid learning cycles each year.

How Leaders Use Calibrate
Calibrate supports multiple use cases for schools, districts, CMOs, and improvement networks.

Uncover What's Driving Engagement
Belonging, high expectations, and meaningful work are leading indicators of academic success. Student feedback reveals which conditions are strong—and where there's room to grow.

Guide Professional Development
Generic PD often misses the mark. Use student experience data to prioritize and target professional learning toward the biggest opportunities for impact.

Track Initiatives in Real Time
Is your new curriculum or program actually working? Rapid student experience data reveals implementation quality and provides early signals of impact—while there's still time to adjust.
