About Wayfinder
Developed at the Stanford University d.school, Wayfinder is the complete PreK-12 platform for purpose-driven learning. Combining research-backed curriculum, MTSS-aligned supports, and real-time insights, Wayfinder equips every learner with skills to thrive in school and beyond. From daily lessons to districtwide data tools, Wayfinder educators have everything they need to teach future-ready skills, measure growth, and foster belonging across grade levels and learning environments. Wayfinder’s Core Curriculum builds six future-ready skills: Self-Awareness, Adaptability, Empathy, Collaboration, Agency, and Purpose. These skills strengthen student engagement, achievement, and well-being. Wayfinder’s thematic Collections and 2000+ activities drive relevant, targeted learning experiences aligned to individual, school, and district goals. The Waypoints assessment suite provides actionable insights into student progress and automatically recommends activities to support each learner’s needs. Since 2015, Wayfinder has driven measurable improvements in engagement, social awareness, and purpose, earning Common Sense Education’s highest Learning Rating. The program now reaches 1.5 million students across thousands of schools worldwide, including major U.S. districts like Des Moines Public Schools, Rockford Public Schools, Douglas County School District, and the Hawaiʻi State Department of Education. Supported by systemwide training and expert guidance, Wayfinder empowers young people to discover direction, meaning, and confidence in who they are and who they’re becoming.
