ACC-09 · IEP / 504 boundary awareness

Write the educator guidance for using AI supports without violating plan accommodations or privacy.

The question

Write the educator guidance for using AI supports without violating plan accommodations or privacy.

Partners / materials

Hypothetical or redacted plan scenarios the teacher supplies — never real student IEP/504 documents from a live caseload in the student packet. Division published AI/student-data rules if available. Guidance aimed at teachers, not a compliance determination.

Expected failure modes

Practicing law or special-ed administration. Using a real student’s plan. Declaring a tool “504 compliant.” Ignoring that accommodations are individualized.

Done looks like

Educator guidance ≤3 pages; scenario walkthroughs; red-line list (what teachers must not do with AI tools); escalation path to case manager/admin; disclaimer that the school decides compliance.

Five C's

CT: support vs plan conflict. CR: scenario-based rules. CO: peer finds a loophole. CM: guidance insert. CZ: the student whose plan would be undermined.

Mentor role

Special-ed teacher or admin adviser reviews red lines. Standing instruction: reject real caseload documents in the student packet. School-supervised.

Rubric calibration

R1: one guidance context. R2: scenarios covered. R3: status-quo accommodation path. R4: privacy/plan risks named. R5: insert-ready. R6: no compliance certificate from a student.

Two ways this goes wrong

(a) Real student plan in the appendix. (b) “The AI is the accommodation.”
