Is Ki'Mani! COPPA and FERPA compliant?

Yes. Ki'Mani! is designed from the ground up to align with COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) and FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act). Children do not create their own accounts — every child profile is provisioned and controlled by a verified parent or educator. We collect the minimum data needed to personalize learning, never sell student data, and all community and AI-mentor surfaces are gated to adult contexts with layered moderation.

What is the 8-Tier Multi-Stakeholder Matrix?

The 8-Tier Multi-Stakeholder Matrix is the role and permission model that powers East Lake Park. It maps every surface to one of eight stakeholder tiers — child learner, parent, classroom educator, school administrator, district administrator, researcher, partner organization, and Dreamy Apps operator — so that each role sees only the data, controls, and reporting they are authorized for. This is how a single platform safely serves a 4-year-old, a fifth-grade teacher, and a district superintendent at the same time.

What is AlphaStreet Finance?

AlphaStreet Finance is Ki'Mani!'s gamified financial literacy module. Children earn Mani Bux through mastery, then learn budgeting, saving, investing, and civic contribution through a three-tier curriculum that includes a Mastery Tax feeding a shared Public Works pool. Withdrawals and real-world payouts are always parent-gated, turning abstract money concepts into hands-on practice without exposing kids to real financial risk.

What ages is Ki'Mani! designed for?

Ki'Mani! supports children ages 2 through 12, split into six developmentally tuned age bands. The youngest bands (2–4 and 5–6) use a 'never wrong' pedagogy with gentle scaffolding, while older bands (7–12) unlock mission-style quests, the Polymath honors track, AI-graded creative briefs, and AlphaStreet Finance.

What is East Lake Park data engine?

East Lake Park is the data and curriculum engine that powers Ki'Mani!. It calibrates an IRT-based item bank against world standards (CCSS, NGSS, C3, CASEL, Jump$tart, CEFR, ISTE), routes children to the right next skill, grades open-ended work with AI, and surfaces mastery reporting for parents, teachers, and district administrators.
