Making AI Work in Schools: From Experimentation to Purposeful Practice

Watch the Webinar

 

The conversation around AI in schools has shifted.

Districts are no longer asking “Should we use this?” They’re now asking:

How do we apply it in ways that actually improve outcomes?

As AI moves into the day-to-day work of schools – from communication and hiring to administrative and instructional workflows – leaders are being asked to make decisions without a clear playbook.

In many districts, adoption is expanding, but not always in coordinated ways. AI is often introduced in pockets, making it difficult to understand where it’s being applied, how it’s being used, and what impact it’s having across teams.

In this session, we explore what it takes to move from early experimentation to more purposeful systemwide practice.

The conversation covers:

  • Where AI is showing up in real district workflows – including hiring, communications, and day-to-day operations
  • What leaders are learning as AI adoption expands across roles and teams
  • Where variation in use is emerging – and what that means for leadership and oversight
  • How districts are supporting staff as AI expands, including building shared expectations for its role
  • What it takes to connect AI efforts to district priorities and make more informed decisions over time

Designed for district and school leaders, this session focuses on how to move beyond trying AI and begin using it in ways that meaningfully support both staff and the work of running a school system.
