Understanding Artificial Intelligence in Public Education

Artificial Intelligence (AI)  is showing up everywhere — faster than most of us can keep up. While the excitement around its potential is real, our understanding of what it means for students, teachers, and communities hasn’t caught up yet. As AI becomes more common in schools, it brings big questions about how it affects learning, safety, privacy, and even the environment.

That’s why there’s a growing call to put strong guardrails in place and make sure school communities know how to use AI responsibly, ethically, and effectively. This resource guide is here to help. It’s designed to support school systems and partners as they navigate the fast-changing world of artificial intelligence — offering tools, research, and examples that can strengthen advocacy and decision-making.
