AI Use & Student Privacy Expectations:
AI Use & Student Privacy Expectations:
While we encourage staff to explore AI as a tool to improve efficiency, planning, and professional practice, please be cautious when using free or public AI tools outside of our licensed system. These platforms often lack the privacy and security protections required for school use.
Staff should NOT:
Enter student names, student IDs, or personally identifiable information (PII) into any AI tool outside of the district-approved system.
Upload or copy IEPs, 504 plans, evaluation reports, grades, attendance data, or discipline records into AI platforms.
Input student work, writing samples, or assessment data that can be linked to an individual student into public or free AI tools.
Use AI tools to analyze or generate content based on confidential student information.
Require or encourage students to create accounts or use AI tools that have not been approved by the district.
When in doubt, stick with our approved tools or reach out for guidance. Our goal is to leverage AI responsibly while protecting our students, staff, and district.
