Quincy High to be featured in Microsoft film; district highlights AI use in CTE and TTK preschool expansion

District administration reported that a Microsoft film crew will visit Quincy High School to film the district’s use of artificial intelligence in Career & Technical Education.

"We have a film crew from Microsoft coming to film, our AI integration at Quincy High School," a district administrator (Speaker 2) told the board. The administrator described CTE teachers using AI for lesson planning, designing rubrics and adapting instruction to industry standards, and said students are using AI tools for tasks such as identifying flowers and developing self-evaluation rubrics.

District staff also reported early-learning enrollment: transition-to-kindergarten (TTK) sessions begin Thursday and the district is bringing in 48 preschool students for sessions at Pioneer Mountain View. Staff said TTK expansion is being advocated for areas with limited preschool availability and noted that TTK students are included in upcoming enrollment counts.

Administrators completed a three-hour training with the district attorney on changed discipline rules and were provided a 60-page administrative handbook covering policy and procedure. Staff said these materials are intended to ensure consistent administrative application of the new rules.

Board members and staff discussed how AI tools could be used to surface policy or procedural language (speaker suggested using an AI chatbot to make policies more accessible), but no formal decisions about AI deployment were recorded.
