Lucido Technology Consulting

Own Your Educational Data. Building a data-first foundation for California public schools — local infrastructure, interoperable pipelines, and FERPA-aligned analytics that stay under your control.


What We Do

We help K-12 school districts break free from vendor lock-in with open-source, local-first data infrastructure. Our work spans:

  • Infrastructure Audit — Assess current data systems and identify sovereignty gaps
  • Pipeline Architecture — Design ETL/ELT pipelines for CALPADS, SIS, and assessment data
  • Data Governance — FERPA-compliant governance with role-based access and audit logging
  • Analytics Stack — DuckDB + Polars + Apache Arrow for millisecond queries on-premises
  • FERPA Compliance — Ensure all student data stays within district control

Open-Source Stack

On Hugging Face

We publish models, datasets, and Spaces focused on educational data use cases — text classification for student support, entity recognition for administrative workflows, and open datasets for equity analytics. Everything we share here is built to be practical, reproducible, and aligned with our mission of data sovereignty.
