Future Ready committee drafts AI mission statement, advances Portrait of a Graduate work

Mr. Scribe told the board the Future Ready committee has drafted an AI mission statement that the committee will refine and present to the board; the IT team will run an AI training on Feb. 13 for staff. The draft mission emphasizes ethical, safety-minded use of artificial intelligence to support learning, operations and college readiness.

"Our approach to AI prioritizes safety, innovation, and responsible use, ensuring that its implementation aligns with our mission to develop self directed learners and community leaders," Scribe said in summarizing the committee’s draft language.

The Portrait of a Graduate subcommittee identified seven durable skills aligned to the current portrait and has been working with advanced high-school art students on graphic design for the initiative. The committee will meet again to consolidate progress and prepare a formal recommendation for the full board.

The report was informational and did not require board action during the open session.
