Definitions

“Artificial Intelligence (AI)” means a machine-based system that can, based on a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing a real or virtual environment.

“AI Tools” means Software, hardware, or cloud-based applications that use AI to aid in tasks like content creation, data analysis, and personalized learning. For purposes of this policy, AI tools does not include items such as spell check or grammar check.

"Automated decision tool" means an AI tool that has been specifically developed and marketed, or specifically modified, to make or to be a controlling factor in making consequential decisions.

This policy governs the use of AI tools in classrooms, administrative functions, and decision-making processes by licensed employees and outlines the responsible and ethical use of integrated AI tools into teaching and administrative practices.

The use of AI tools by District licensed employees shall adhere to the following:
· The use of AI tools by licensed employees shall adhere to District policy; State and Federal law; State rules; and federal regulations governing data privacy; and
· The use of AI tools shall operate in a manner that allows staff, students, and parents to have the opportunity to access information on how AI tools are integrated in teaching and learning within the district.

Licensed employees may use AI tools to personalize learning, assist with lesson planning, and provide real-time feedback to students. Any use of AI tools shall be to complement, rather than replace, human instruction.

Any use of AI tools in the classroom shall be deployed in a way that considers equal access for all students, regardless of socioeconomic status, and shall not exacerbate inequalities. Licensed employees shall actively monitor AI tools for any signs of bias or inequitable treatment of students. Any AI tools that are used for student assessments shall be monitored for biases and regularly reviewed with the ultimate goal of impartiality. Automated writing evaluation and/or grading AI tools are required to provide feedback based on set learning indicators including, but not limited to: objectives, outcomes, goals, competencies, targets, success criteria, proficiency scales, rubrics, or other indicators. AI tools, including automated decision tools, shall not be the sole basis for decisions that significantly affect students, such as assignment of grades.

It is the responsibility of the District’s licensed employees to monitor AI tool usage and verify the use of the AI tools is in alignment with the district’s ethical guidelines and educational goals.

While AI tools, including automated decision tools, may be used to assist with administrative tasks, such as lesson planning, scheduling, data analysis, and managing student records, final decisions impacting students or employees must involve human oversight.

Employees are responsible for their use of AI tools and for safeguarding sensitive information. Employees shall report any security incidents or potential data breaches immediately to a supervisor or the IT department.

The failure to comply with this policy or a District policy governing the release of information may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
