Board reviews AI presentation; emphasizes equity, teacher guidance and student data protections
Summary
Following a presentation by Dr. Pollock, the board discussed phased AI access for students, training for staff and students on citation and academic integrity, and safeguards for personally identifiable information to ensure equitable, responsible use.
The board heard a presentation from Dr. Pollock on the district’s approach to artificial intelligence in instruction and discussed next steps for equity, training and safeguards.
Board members said the district is two years into committee work on AI and aims to offer student access next year while ensuring equitable availability, teacher guidance and protections for student data. Speakers emphasized teacher discretion in classroom use, staff training on AI tools, and student instruction on citation and avoiding unintentional academic dishonesty. The chair noted existing compliance frameworks that guard student data and underlined the importance of not feeding personally identifiable information into AI systems.
What happens next: Staff will continue committee work on policy details, training plans for teachers and students, and measures to ensure equitable access and responsible use before a student rollout.
