Coventry advances student data policy revisions addressing AI

What happened

The School Committee approved a first reading of revised student data privacy and security policy language that adds provisions addressing artificial intelligence. The Oct. 22 agenda listed a second-reading vote, but the records in this batch do not show its outcome.

Why it matters to families

The policy governs how the district protects student data; families should know that AI-related provisions are being added, while the final policy status remains unconfirmed in the available records.

The evidence

The Oct. 8 minutes say the district revised its previously approved policy after further work and incorporated provisions addressing AI; the committee approved the first reading 6–0. The Oct. 22 agenda (document 123372) listed EHBA for a second-reading discussion and vote, but no minutes or vote result are included in this batch.
