Diagnostic Entry Engagement · Stage 01: Compass

AI 360 Review

An evidence-grounded institutional audit evaluating what AI tools are actually running inside your schools. We surface unsanctioned shadow AI, evaluate student data privacy exposures, reconcile software contracts, and deliver an actionable governance roadmap for superintendent cabinets and school boards.

The Question It Answers

“What AI tools are currently inside our district, who is using them, and where is our student data exposed?”

Before a district can adopt an enforceable Acceptable Use Policy or evaluate expensive AI vendor contracts, leadership must establish baseline visibility. In typical district environments, central IT oversees fewer than half of the AI tools actively accessed in classrooms. The remainder operates in the background — ungoverned browser extensions, personal teacher accounts, consumer chatbots, and mobile utilities that bypass procurement reviews.

The AI 360 Review (our Compass stage) replaces guesswork with empirical inventory. We do not sell software, and we do not grade districts with punitive labels. We give superintendents, CTOs, and boards the clear signal needed to govern with confidence.

Four-Phase Structured Delivery

How the 360 Review Works

Our review is designed for busy district leaders. We handle the heavy investigative lifting through data reconciliation, log analysis, and confidential interviews.

01
Week 0 · Kickoff & Setup

Orientation & Data Stream Intake

Preliminary alignment meeting with your designated district liaison. We confirm the scope of platforms to audit, establish secure file exchange protocols, and distribute our de-identified staff AI utilization survey.

02
Week 1 · Discovery & Telemetry

Log Analysis & Shadow AI Detection

We review internet usage reports, filtering logs, Single Sign-On (SSO) app catalogs, and software procurement accounts. This triangulates sanctioned enterprise tools against unvetted apps and chrome extensions actively handling student input.

03
Week 2 · Analysis & Stakeholder Interviews

Cross-Platform Analysis & Ground Truth

We conduct targeted virtual interviews with district technology leadership, curriculum directors, and digital teacher-librarians. Every identified platform is evaluated through our proprietary CUEI-AI framework, normalizing disparate applications onto a single analytical plane to isolate data privacy exposures, instructional offloading, and contract redundancies.

04
Week 3 · Reporting & Action

Cabinet Briefing & Executive Roadmap

We deliver a comprehensive written findings report, tool-by-tool governance scorecards, and present an executive briefing to cabinet leadership outlining a prioritized 90-day action plan.

Proprietary Methodology

Cross-Tool Evaluation & The CUEI-AI Framework

School districts rarely adopt AI in a single category. Instead, classrooms and central offices run dozens of disparate applications simultaneously — from student-facing writing assistants and adaptive math tutors to administrative workflow utilities and automated meeting summarizers.

Our proprietary CUEI-AI framework provides a standardized evaluation methodology across vastly different tools, allowing leadership to systematically determine their specific risk surfaces, operational drawbacks, and potential educational benefits. Rather than leaving leadership with abstract ratings, this analysis translates directly into four concrete administrative determinations:

RETAIN

High efficacy and vetted privacy compliance. Maintain enterprise contract and support continued adoption.

RIGHT-SIZE

Valuable capability with poor license utilization. Renegotiate seat counts or consolidate redundant contracts.

SUNSET

Low utilization, redundant capabilities, or unfavorable renewal terms. Structured phase-out with minimal classroom disruption.

DISCOURAGE

Unacceptable student privacy risks, model training exposure, or harmful pedagogical profile. Block at network edge.

Tangible Deliverables

What Your Leadership Team Receives

We deliver concrete, executive-level artifacts built specifically for superintendents, curriculum leaders, and school boards.

01 · Comprehensive Tool Inventory

A reconciled master ledger detailing every AI product discovered across network logs, SSO databases, and teacher surveys — categorizing centralized tools, department pilots, and shadow AI.

02 · Shadow AI Vulnerability Map

Clear visibility into unvetted tools currently processing student work or district credentials, highlighting immediate data privacy risks under FERPA, COPPA, and state statutes.

03 · CUEI-AI Portfolio Determinations

Objective, comparative evaluations for every software platform in use across your schools, giving procurement and cabinet leaders documented rationale for contract renewals, consolidations, or network restrictions.

04 · Cabinet Briefing & Roadmap

A synthesized executive presentation and prioritized 90-day action plan that prepares your administration to draft enforceable policy and lead informed school board discussions.

The RaiseMark Methodology

Part of an Integrated Governance Pathway

The AI 360 Review is the foundational Compass stage of RaiseMark's governance model. Once your district establishes baseline visibility, our team can guide your cabinet through Map (Acceptable Use Policy development and board adoption) and Path (ongoing membership intelligence).
