Your District Has Policies. Now You Need a Plan.
State legislation is moving fast. Vendors are asking for access to student data. Teachers are using AI tools you’ve never heard of. And someone — a board member, a parent, a reporter — is going to ask what your district is doing about it.
The AI Governance Toolkit gives you everything you need to answer that question with confidence. Real frameworks, ready-to-run training, and resources built for K-12 leaders who need to move their guardrails from we’re working on them to done.
What’s Inside the AI Governance Toolkit
- AI Vendor DPA Checklist: Know exactly what to ask before any AI vendor gets access to your data. Covers student privacy, data ownership, third-party sharing, and breach notification protocols.
- Board Reporting Deck: Customizable slides built around your AI usage audit data, covering the national landscape, district findings, policy framework, and board asks. Drop in your numbers and present.
- AI Compliance Tracker: Know what your state requires of districts, track pending legislation, and see how Lightspeed maps to each mandate. Filterable by status and searchable by state.
- Staff AI Training Deck: A ready-to-run, 20-minute session for faculty and staff. Covers what counts as AI, your district’s approved/monitored/blocked framework, real scenarios, and how to report.
- AI Governance Dashboard Flyer: A one-page visual overview of Lightspeed’s AI Governance Dashboard — what it tracks, how to read it, and how to share what it shows. Covers the five key views: generative AI usage, safety monitoring, screen time and engagement, policy enforcement, and app inventory with approval status.
Why the AI Governance Toolkit Matters
AI isn’t coming to K-12 — it’s already there. In late 2025, nearly two-thirds of middle and high school students reported using AI tools for schoolwork. That number keeps climbing. And district review processes are struggling to keep up.
Blocking AI is no longer a viable strategy. Governing it is. To do that, you’ll need a plan.
This toolkit is that plan.
