District announces AI staff training, graduation date, renovations and tutoring reach
Summary
Administrators announced staff development from the Social Institute focused on AI and social-emotional learning, set graduation for June 20 at 1 p.m., described building-abatement and tennis-court work, and reported 44 students participating in the district tutoring program.
Administrators told the North Rose‑Wolcott board about several nonbudget items: a staff‑development visit by Allie Lipscher of the Social Institute to prepare staff for appropriate uses of AI; a graduation date of June 20 at 1 p.m.; ongoing abatement and renovations in several buildings including planned tennis‑court drainage work; and that the Cougar Apps tutoring program has served 44 students from surrounding districts.
Mr. Pullen said the Social Institute session will include guidance on AI implementation and social‑emotional learning and that the board has been reviewing an AI policy. “She’s going to talk extensively about the use of AI, the how to and, what we should look for with respect to moving forward with the policy,” he said.
On facilities, the presenter said most abatement is complete except stairwells and noted upcoming framing work in older hallways. He described site work and drainage for new tennis courts and abatement in the high‑school gym and bathrooms. Mark reported the tutoring program has reached 44 students from nearby districts and that about 68 students are being monitored to make sure they graduate.
Student representative Lily said a new Student Board of Education email account has seen little traction, and the students plan a ‘thought exchange’ with the student body before spring break to solicit feedback.
The board also heard positive notes: Dollars for Scholars student callers raised $9,836 during a March phone‑a‑thon and several seniors received scholar awards. The superintendent said neighboring districts will be invited to staff development events.
