Why Wayfinder
© Wayfinder, 2026
Schools have strong systems for tracking academic growth, but often miss opportunities to help students build the human skills they need most.
Waypoints changes that: it’s a dynamic assessment suite that collects, analyzes, and responds to the data that helps students succeed in school and life.
Every educator has different questions. Administrators want to know how their school community is doing, counselors need to know who needs support and how they're responding, and teachers want to know what students learned. Waypoints provides real-time answers with assessments and surveys for every educator.
Summative + Formative Assessments help you track student well-being and Core Skill development over time, so students build foundational skills and get the support they need most.
The Core Skills Screener identifies students who may need intervention, and Custom Formative Assessments progress monitor their responses.
Exit Tickets show what students learned and help you identify misconceptions, so you can plan, scaffold, reteach, or extend learning.
Customizable School Climate Surveys let you listen to your school community, understand the climate, and make a positive, actionable change.
