New rules for students using AI
What happened
On May 26, 2026, the board adopted a Student Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy. Students must say when they used AI on their work. A first violation brings a grade penalty, and repeat violations are handled under the code of conduct. The district is also trying out a monitored AI platform, and a staff AI policy is still being written.
Why it matters to families
Students now have clear rules on AI for schoolwork, with grade consequences for breaking them.
