A sweeping policy change will restrict artificial intelligence tools for younger students, imposing a full one-year ban on AI use for all students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. Meanwhile, high school students will see more limited access to AI applications, though specific guidelines on permitted use have not yet been detailed. The decision follows growing concerns over the ethical implications and developmental appropriateness of AI in elementary education. Parents and educators are urged to review the updated rules ahead of the upcoming school year.
Students pre-K through 8th grade will face a one-year blanket ban while high school students will have limited AI use available.
