AI READINESS LEADERSHIP

TARGET AUDIENCE: Superintendents, Principals, and District Leaders

Generative AI is no longer a future consideration—it is already shaping classrooms, staff workflows, and student expectations. Across districts, leaders are responding in different ways: drafting guidelines, piloting tools, pausing adoption, or revisiting long-standing policies through a new lens.

This leadership roundtable is designed to create space for district administrators to share where they are, what they’re learning, and what questions remain as Gen AI becomes more visible in K–12 systems.

Using the K–12 Gen AI Readiness Checklist (V1.2) from the Council of the Great City Schools (CGCS) and CoSN as a common reference point, participants will engage in structured conversation around three focus areas:

• Executive Strategy & Governance
• Academic AI Literacy
• Risk, Equity, and Policy Readiness

Rather than a “sit and get” session, this experience emphasizes peer learning, cross-district insight, and practical reflection—recognizing that no district is starting from the same place.
