AI is transforming education—but who’s really driving the change? At Lockport Township High School District 205, students aren’t just users; they’re partners, weighing in on how AI fits their daily lives and learning needs. Simultaneously, teachers are building AI literacy, finding practical uses to enhance teaching, and weaving AI into student learning. This dynamic duo shapes decisions that are practical, powerful, and personal. Join this session to explore how authentic student input paired with teacher growth creates a scalable, inclusive AI roadmap. Discover ways to bring people together, encourage collaboration, and unlock insights that inspire new possibilities. In partnership with LEAP Innovations, discover how this co-designed approach is reshaping what’s possible in schools—where AI amplifies voices, empowers educators, and transforms learning for all.
