New AI policies are making their way into classrooms as the new school year approaches.

The 2026-27 school year begins with new rules regarding how students can use AI in their classwork.

Central Florida students will be met by a new set of regulations concerning the usage of A-I as they return to classrooms next week.

The Orange County School District is implementing guidelines for how students can use artificial intelligence in their school work – Central Florida Public Media’s education reporter Kayla Kissel has been reporting on these new policies and joins Engage to talk about the changes.
