How are central Ohio school districts implementing the state's AI policy requirement?
Ohio has a state-level requirement for school districts to have AI policies, and central Ohio districts are now working out how to put those policies into practice. The details of how each district is responding appear to vary.
Why this matters: Schools are sitting on a lot of sensitive data about children. When a state tells districts to adopt AI policies, the real work is in the details: what tools are allowed, what student data those tools can touch, and who is accountable if something goes wrong. A policy requirement is not the same as a good policy. Parents in these districts should be able to see exactly what their kids' schools have decided and ask hard questions about it.
