District news
District sets rules for AI use in class
What happened
MSAD 55's AI guidelines, updated April 13, 2026, let teachers use AI tools that meet age and safety rules. Students may not use generative AI on assignments without teacher permission, and must check and cite anything it produces.
Why it matters to families
Families now know when students can and cannot use tools like ChatGPT or Gemini for schoolwork, and how student data is protected.
The evidence
The guidelines bar staff from entering students' personal information into AI tools. The district will not use an AI tool that needs a student account without a data privacy agreement, and misuse is handled under the academic honesty and code of conduct policies.
