Torrance Unified School District is continuing the second year of the AI Exploration Program to pilot SchoolAI as an educational tool used by a cohort of K-12 teachers and students during the 2025-2026 school year.
The 23-24 TUSD AI Committee collaborated to develop goals for AI integration. Their work led to selecting SchoolAI as the district’s first platform to enhance teaching, learning, and innovation across all grade levels. Other AI platforms were also evaluated in this process to ensure alignment with district values, equity standards, data privacy policies, and the diverse needs of TUSD’s educators and students.
SchoolAI’s Terms of Service allow for students under the age of 13 to utilize AI. TUSD has also signed a Data Privacy Agreement with SchoolAI.
🚀 Engage with AI as a thought partner in curriculum development & lesson planning.
🚀 Gain support in IEP goal development.
🚀 Utilize the many assistants available for essay grading, research, leveling texts, and more!
🚀 Create "SchoolAI Spaces" where students can interact in a chat with AI based on the parameters/directives set by the teacher. With these spaces, teachers can monitor all student chats from the teacher dashboard to peruse the formative data generated by SchoolAI
