Blanchester school board adopts new AI policy under state mandate
The Blanchester school board has adopted a new artificial intelligence policy, acting in response to a state mandate requiring districts to establish formal AI guidelines. Details of the policy's specific rules have not been publicly reported.
Why this matters: When schools adopt AI policies, the details are everything. Kids are not adults. They cannot consent to data collection the way a worker or a customer can, and schools hold some of the most sensitive records that exist — learning disabilities, behavioral histories, family situations. A policy adopted because the state said so is better than nothing. But 'we have a policy' is not the same as 'we know what data the tools collect, who can see it, and what happens when something goes wrong.' Parents deserve to read the actual document.
