SB 1288 Mandate

California requires LEAs to adopt AI governance policies

Senate Bill 1288 established the AI in Education Working Group to develop model policy guidance. Every California school district must adopt policies addressing:

  1. 1 Academic integrity and plagiarism in the context of AI tools
  2. 2 Acceptable and unacceptable uses of AI for pupils and educators
  3. 3 Pupil and educator data privacy and data security
  4. 4 Parent and guardian access to information pupils enter into AI systems
  5. 5 Procurement of software that ensures safety and privacy of pupils and educators
  6. 6 Effective use of AI to support teaching and learning without risk

Six Modules

VERA Comply addresses every SB 1288 requirement

Each module presents CSBA model policy language, assesses your district's current status, and allows customization for local needs. Complete all six modules to generate your board-ready AI policy document.

A

Academic Integrity

Policies governing academic integrity, plagiarism, and disclosure requirements for AI-assisted work in classrooms.

B

Acceptable Uses

Clear guidelines for appropriate and inappropriate AI use by students and educators across grade levels.

C

Notification requirements, opt-out processes, and parent rights to access AI interaction history.

E

Procurement

Vendor vetting, contract provisions, AI tool registry, and annual review cycles for continued use.

The 360-Degree Loop

VERA Comply completes the GAMUT policy cycle

GAMUT Hosts the Policy

CSBA's GAMUT platform contains 650+ board policies, administrative regulations, and bylaws. VERA Comply generates AI policies that integrate seamlessly into GAMUT's structure.

VERA Comply Generates It

Rather than starting from scratch, districts complete VERA Comply's guided workflow to produce a complete, SB 1288-compliant AI policy pre-populated with model language.

VERA Verifies Compliance

Once adopted, VERA's data analytics tools verify that AI tool use aligns with district policy, tracking procurement, access patterns, and human approval workflows.

Assist Closes the Loop

District questions about AI governance flow to Assist, where real people provide strategic guidance that informs the next policy revision cycle.
