Building and managing a technology budget can be complex, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

This guide offers a practical framework, including an evaluation instrument and real-world case studies, to help independent school technology leaders make informed decisions about adopting and integrating AI tools.

This resource provides independent schools with a collection of sample AI policies for students and faculty, academic honesty statements, acceptable/responsible use policies, honor codes, and deepfake policies from various independent schools.

The guide aims to inform independent school board members about the evolving Artificial Intelligence (AI) landscape relevant to K-12 education, prompting them to consider crucial aspects like school policies, risk management, legal considerations, privacy concerns, and insurance policies.
