Board updates policies including academic honesty guidance to address AI use
Summary
Staff presented updates to 12 board policies and administrative regulations to reflect legislative and legal changes; the board approved amendments clarifying academic honesty and allowable uses of AI in student work (editing help allowed but not sole-source completion).
Staff recommended updates to a package of 12 board policies and administrative regulations to ensure compliance with changes in education code and recent legislation; the board approved the package by motion.
During discussion the superintendent and staff emphasized clarifying language around academic honesty and student assessments in light of AI tools: the policy text permits use of AI for editing and grammar help but not "as the sole source of completing the work." The district will provide principals and teachers with "cliff-note" summaries and bring targeted items to site leadership and staff for rollout. The board approved the recommended updates on a voice vote.
