What happened

The district is testing an AI math tutoring program with 15 selected middle school students. It is grant-funded and free to the district, and starting second semester it runs as an elective class.

Why it matters to families

Some students are getting math help from an AI tool instead of only from a teacher. Parents may want to know how it works and how student progress is measured.

The evidence

January 26, 2026 minutes record the assistant principal's report that the district is piloting an AI math tutoring program with 15 selected students. November 17, 2025 minutes describe it as tied to a Cornell/Stanford study, grant-funded and offered as an elective from second semester.
