Target Audience: District Designated AI Champions
The Lorain County AI Champions Network brings together designated AI Champions from each participating district for three in-person meetings throughout the school year (October, February, and May) at the ESC of Lorain County. Sessions combine practical AI training — from policy implementation to classroom tools — with peer discussion, so Champions can bring guidance and strategies back to their own buildings. The network is part of ESCLC/NORT2H's Martha Holden Jennings Foundation–funded initiative, "AI for Impact: From Awareness to Classroom Change.
