Answer.
The Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights guidance frames AI through existing civil-rights law — schools must ensure AI tools do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin (Title VI), sex (Title IX), or disability (§504/ADA), which means checking for discriminatory impact and maintaining oversight. It is an application of nondiscrimination duties, not a new technical standard. Planisphere measures model behaviour across protected cohorts to support that check; it does not render the civil-rights determination or give legal advice.
