Generative AI has rapidly entered K–12 classrooms—often without formal policies, visibility, or safeguards. Students are using AI to complete assignments, teachers are leveraging it to save time, and district staff are exploring its potential for productivity. The challenge is not whether AI will be used, but how to enable it safely.This session provides a practical, real-world framework for how K–12 districts can embrace AI while protecting students, staff, and sensitive data.Attendees will learn:-How students, teachers, and staff are already using AI tools today-The most common risks in K–12 environments, including student data exposure, academic integrity concerns, and unsafe or inappropriate outputs-Why traditional web filtering and endpoint controls are not enough-Practical approaches to gaining visibility into AI usage across devices and browsers-How to implement guardrails that support learning and innovation without restricting access. This session is designed for district technology leaders, curriculum leaders, and administrators looking to move from AI uncertainty to confident, responsible adoption.
