typical return vs. grading-labor saved
Billed per active gradeable subject — counting only subjects at the levels PencilGrade grades. A center with ~120 gradeable subjects runs about $720/month, while saving $2,000–3,000/month in grading labor. Subscribe to just the module you need:

➕ Math module

Auto-grades computational math — from the point students write numeric answers, on up. This is the core.

📖 Reading module

Grades the applicable reading levels. Add it on its own or alongside Math.

Nothing changes for your students

Except one thing they'll love.

✓
The routine stays exactly the same. Results go to the grader, never the child. Students still get a human-marked sheet and work through their corrections just as they do today.
⚡
They're in and out faster. The only change a student notices: no waiting in line for grading. Sheets come back in moments, so kids spend their time learning, not waiting.
✓
Early Learners keep their teachers. PencilGrade doesn't touch early-learner instruction — your center can go on giving the same one-on-one attention from your Early Learner teachers that it always has.

Where it fits (and where it doesn't)

✓
Best for centers with real Math (and applicable Reading) volume. The more graded worksheets at computational levels, the more you save.
✗
Not built for Early Learners (EL). The youngest, pre-computational levels are graded by eye and stay with your Early Learner teachers — so you're simply not billed for those subjects.
✓
Modular. Run Math only, Reading only, or both — whatever matches your center.
