CCSD 62 forms Superintendent Council, celebrates staff and forms AI task force as staffing planning continues
Summary
District 62 said it created a Superintendent Council of 14 staff to improve transparency, celebrated staff recognized by the Illinois State Board of Education, and reported rising staff interest in artificial intelligence with an AI task force developing student guidelines and AI literacy sequencing.
A district spokesperson said Community Consolidated School District 62 formed a new Superintendent Council this past fall consisting of 14 staff members from across district buildings; the council meets quarterly with Superintendent Dr. Amadeh to promote transparency, build relationships and establish trust, the district said.
The district also reported that staff members were recognized by the Illinois State Board of Education this year and that districtwide gatherings — including keynote addresses on culture and belonging — brought staff together for connection and learning. Officials said the district is planning strategically for workforce needs to staff full‑day kindergarten and is actively recruiting to reflect the community.
On artificial intelligence, the district said staff usage increased this year from initial apprehension to broader interest. The district has provided training, and an AI task force is developing student guidelines and a scope and sequence for AI literacy skills.
No board motions or votes were reported on staffing or AI during the update; staff described ongoing recruitment, council meetings and professional development.
