Artificial Intelligence: There are district policies in place and we’re beginning to navigate
using this technology. The district will be purchasing a license to Magic School AI for
next school year. There will be some training from the company in the fall. The state of
Iowa is also offering a reading tutor AI that our district could use.

Facilities Committee Update: The new bus garage will be built this calendar year, the
gym will be painted this summer, and future planning will take place. The MORE
