A sweeping new policy will restrict artificial intelligence tools for younger students, imposing a one-year ban for those in pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. High school students will still have access to AI, though with significant limitations on how it can be used. The decision follows growing concerns over the ethical and developmental implications of AI in early education. Schools are now scrambling to adjust curricula and technology policies in response to the directive.
Students pre-K through 8th grade will face a one-year blanket ban while high school students will have limited AI use available.
