As AI becomes more integrated into all aspects of life, Ohio’s education system must prepare students not only with foundational knowledge, but also with the skills necessary to thrive in an AI-enhanced world. The Department, in collaboration with its partners, is providing resources to assist schools with implementing these AI policies effectively.
By July 1, 2026, all Ohio traditional public school districts, community schools, and STEM schools are required to adopt a formal policy on the use of artificial intelligence (AI). To support this statewide initiative, the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce, informed by the work of the Ohio AI in Education Coalition, has developed a model policy that schools may choose to adopt.
