The AI conversation has arrived in your school.
Now what?
Students are using generative tools at home and in class. Teachers are making up rules on the fly. Parents are asking questions. Meanwhile, district policies are delayed, outdated—or nonexistent.
The Stop-Gap AI Policy Guide offers a clear, practical response.
Designed specifically for K–8 schools, this guide blends expert insight with a simple, six-meeting structure that helps your team create a working AI policy—fast. No jargon. No top-down mandates. Just the tools, templates, and talking points you need to move from confusion to clarity.
You don’t need to be an AI expert.
You just need a place to start.
“A truly timely guide. It addresses one of the most pressing issues in education today. Tackling both policy and application, this book has provided invaluable insight into an area that sorely needs it.”
—Nick Dyiadyk, Teacher
“Built for school leaders, teacher teams, and the realities of school life, this guide offers a scaffold for making smart, practical decisions about AI. It’s something you can build on, adapt, and actually use starting Monday.”
—Rena Alasgarova, Deputy Principal & AI Policy Expert
