DISTRICTCOMPASS
AICompass
Understand how AI is already shaping your district—then lead with evidence.
AICompass gives district leaders a clearer view of AI activity, readiness, governance, and professional learning needs while keeping interpretation and decisions in district hands.
AI adoption rarely begins with a districtwide announcement.
It begins in individual classrooms, offices, departments, and workflows. Staff explore tools that appear useful. New practices spread unevenly. Leaders may see isolated examples without having a reliable picture of what is happening across the organization.
AICompass is designed to turn that uncertainty into a structured leadership conversation. It brings evidence together so districts can move from assumptions to informed priorities—without treating a dashboard as the decision-maker.
The goal is not to monitor people. It is to help leaders understand patterns, reduce risk, and create the conditions for responsible use.
Seven connected readiness domains
1. Shadow AI discovery
Surface patterns of AI tool use already present in district systems and identify tools that need review.
2. Infrastructure readiness
Examine whether networks, devices, access, and support structures can sustain responsible adoption.
3. Data privacy and governance
Connect tool activity with approval processes, vendor review, DPA status, and district governance practices.
4. Policy readiness
Identify where board policy, administrative regulation, academic integrity guidance, and family communication need attention.
5. Staff and leadership capacity
Understand current confidence, literacy, role-specific needs, and readiness for professional learning.
6. Curriculum and instruction
Explore where AI may strengthen learning experiences and where clearer instructional expectations are needed.
7. IEP and special education
Review assistive-technology opportunities, compliance considerations, safeguards, and equitable access for students with IEPs.
What district leaders receive
A shared evidence base
Bring technical, instructional, governance, and professional learning signals into one coherent view.
Prioritized findings
Distinguish immediate risk, near-term readiness work, and longer-term opportunities instead of treating every issue as equally urgent.
Leadership-ready communication
Translate evidence into clear conversations for cabinet, governance teams, instructional leaders, and technology staff.
AICompass is currently in active development and pilot work. Product capabilities and availability will be described clearly as the platform evolves.
