GenAI Safety in Your District

A Guide to Identify, Assess, and Address AI Risk in Your Schools

GenAI tools are proliferating in schools faster than any approval process can keep up with. Some can be used effectively for teaching and learning. Others pose significant risks to privacy, safety, equity, and learning.

This guide provides a tiered risk framework for the most common AI tools reaching students and educators. Use it to identify what to address first, inform vetting decisions, and start productive conversations with your leadership team.

The guide is part of a more comprehensive audit tool from the new workshop we built for district and schools ready to move beyond policy and into practical protection.

The workshop takes you through the full audit process: applying the framework to your specific tools, collecting and interpreting data from your community, facilitating leadership conversations, and building a prioritized action plan.

Audit, Assess, Act: A GenAI Safety Workshop
